The transition to zero-emission offshore operations is gaining momentum. On29 October, key players from across the offshore wind value chain will gather in Newcastle to explore how offshore charging infrastructure can accelerate the electrification of service vessels.

Hosted bySeaonics, MJR, and Stillstrom, and supported byMaritime CleanTech, Norwegian Offshore Wind,andNOF, the workshop will bring together developers, vessel owners, designers, suppliers, grid operators, and authorities to identify practical solutions for advancing zero-emission operations at sea.

The workshop will combine keynote presentations and collaborative roundtable discussions to address the barriers, technical challenges, and collaborative actions needed to unlock offshore charging opportunities.

Held atEquinor’s Dogger Bank O&M Base at the Port of Tyne, the event aims to strengthen industry cooperation and help shape the roadmap for large-scale electrification in offshore wind operations.

💡The event is fully booked — we look forward to sharing key insights with our wider network afterwards!
