SUMMARY:Global Offshore Wind Summit - Japan 2022
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the second Global Offshore Wind Summit in Japan (GOW
 S-J 2022)  on 9-10 November\, organised by Japan Wind Power Association (
 JWPA) and GWEC at Akita Prefecture. This year we will be having 5 panel di
 scussions\, 6 keynote speeches and 27 specialised sessions. Some of the ke
 y discussion topics include identifying offshore wind business viability\,
  looking into the future of floating offshore wind and enhancing social ac
 ceptance by local communities such as fishery and local supply chain compa
 nies.\n\nWhy Japan\n\nIn the 6th Strategic Energy plan announced in Octobe
 r 2021\, the Government of Japan (GOJ) reviewed its energy policy progress
  in the decade after the incident at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Stati
 on and increased the share of expected renewable energy installed capacity
  in 2030 by more than 10%. The total wind energy is expected to account fo
 r about 5% of the total electricity mix by 2030 with 17.9 GW of onshore wi
 nd and 5.7 GW of offshore wind.\n\nIn view of the latest international con
 flicts\, energy security has once again hit the headline. This has challen
 ged Japan’s position as a country that is heavily reliant on imported oi
 l and gas. On the other hand\, this has also strengthened Japan’s commit
 ment to make offshore wind power one of the main energy sources and build 
 a more reliable and self-sustainable energy system. \n\nOffshore wind dev
 elopment is now underway through five port areas and 12 general sea areas\
 , including the areas that have been awarded through Round-1 tender last D
 ecember. In addition\, 10 other areas are in the preparatory stage. Japan'
 s offshore wind power has begun to move.\n\nInterested to find out how the
  GOJ aims to develop the offshore wind industry with a focus to accelerate
  the deployment of floating offshore wind? \n\nJoin us at GOWS-J 2022\, m
 eet high-level government officers\, policy makers and sector experts to d
 eepen your knowledge and establish your thought leadership\, branding and 
 visibility in the offshore wind sector.
