Summary
Higher interest rates and cost pressures in the supply chain have challenged Europe’s offshore wind sector in 2023, leaving some developers to abandon projects. At the same time, offshore wind players in Europe made a record €30 billion worth of final investment decisions during the year. European governments will hold auctions for around 50 GW of offshore wind capacity in 2024, eager to meet fast-approaching installation targets.
Join our guest speakers, consisting of energy developers, bankers, and analysts to discuss:
- How offshore wind auctions will adapt to these new realities in 2024
- How supply chains are coping with higher costs
- Whether Europe’s offshore wind targets can still be met
- What’s next for floating wind, a technology that still struggles to scale up
