The B.W.O.
The BWO is the political representative body for the offshore wind industry in Germany. We pool the professional expertise of companies along the entire value chain, from manufacturers and developers to operators and service providers in the offshore wind energy sector. The BWO is committed to advocating for the political, regulatory, and economic interests of the industry. conditions for the expansion of offshore wind energy in line with the energy transition structuresThe BWO is the central point of contact for political actors at the state and federal levels on all matters relating to offshore wind energy. The BWO evaluates current developments and analyzes the consequences of future regulatory frameworks.
European Cooperation
Europe
300 gigawatts of offshore wind energy must be installed in European waters by 2050 in order to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent in the world. The implementation of cross-border offshore wind projects and the better networking of the EU coastal countries could make an enormous contribution to the efficient use of offshore wind energy. Costs could be further reduced and the space requirement reduced. Our goal: A European offshore grid through which the electricity from the connected offshore wind farms can be transported flexibly and across borders to where it is needed.
