Join us at this webinar focusing on the competence needs for Ports and Infrastructure developing Offshore Wind!
In collaboration between Fagskolen Rogaland, Energy Innovation, Wind Works Jelsa, Karmsund Port Authority and Norwegian Offshore Wind we are happy to invite for a free accessible webinar addressing development in ports and infrastructure for Offshore Wind.
The webinar, delivered by the T-shore Centre of Vocational Excellence for Offshore Wind Norway, provide insights into the capacity and the need of competence in the development of ports and infrastructure facilitating the development of Offshore Wind industry.
As a part of the green transition there is a need of restructuring of port facilities and infrastructure to support and adjust to a growing wind industry. There are different needs for floating wind turbines compared with bottom-fixed wind turbines. Large facilities are required to develop a competitive industry. The ambition is to have installation and assembly capacity of 5 GW within 2030 in Norwegian ports.
