Event registration is closed.
Floating offshore wind opens new possibilities for wind power locations and will contribute significantly to an increase in offshore wind power worldwide, but there are still challenges to be solved to bring down costs and scale up solutions.
In this workshop we will build on experiences and learnings from the world’s first floating wind parks, address challenges and showcase Norwegian solutions to address them.
