The European Offshore Wind Market faces various challenges. Whilst some countries have already a tendering procurement in place, others are on their way to procure their first tenders. With some exciting projects to come, understanding the tendering procurement process and the implications for the industry is the key success factor for investors, suppliers as well as lenders.
The interactive session will provide insights into Europe´s landscape, as well as address the risk, challenges and opportunities associated with the tendering approach for Offshore wind parks.
