About this Webinar
Offshore wind is the third subject of our Energy Encounters. We bring together key players to examine what is possible in Belgium and what the challenges are that companies face for large-scale offshore wind deployment. During the debate, we will also discuss drivers and opportunities, as well as examine the question how policy can accelerate the deployment of offshore wind.
