The purpose of the event is to showcase leading practice across Scotland in delivering Scotland’s offshore wind ambitions, providing perspectives on the different elements needed to successfully exploit the huge opportunities within Scotland’s grasp. In particular, it aims to draw on the learning gained by different organisations and places across the country and share these to help improve delivery.
