Japan’s policies and regulatory frameworks surrounding offshore wind power are at a turning point.
While reforms to the auction system and the expansion of designated development areas are underway, challenges such as rising costs and supply chain constraints remain unresolved.
On 13 March Renewable Energy Institute / 自然エネルギー財団 will host a seminar, sharing the latest international trends and discussing the policy and regulatory design needed to achieve sustained expansion of offshore wind deployment.
Our CCO & Co-founder Rikke Winther Nørgaard will join the stage with Mika Ohbayashi, Director at Renewable Energy Institute / 自然エネルギー財団 to present our new, joint cost-study of offshore wind in Japan.
This new study analyzes the cost gap in bottom-fixed offshore wind between Japan and Europe, identifies its key drivers, and highlights the potential for cost reductions toward 2040.
