Regional cooperation on offshore grid development
High-level & Plenaries
When: Thursday, 28 November 2019, 9:00 - 10:15
Where: A15
Session description
One of the keys to unlocking offshore wind’s potential is the build-up of an offshore grid. This challenge offers an unprecedented opportunity for innovative approaches, as the offshore grid would be largely unbound by the legacies of onshore infrastructure, and could leverage the newest technologies. But implementing it will require a high degree of coordination across stakeholders and countries.
