Wind Power Transmission and Distribution 2010 conference

Thursday 3 and Friday 4 June 2010, Manchester, UK

The Crown Estate recently announced nine sites around Britain for Round 3 wind power generation with the aim of producing up to 32 gigawatts from 6,400 offshore turbines.
But is grid capacity and distribution strategy ready to deal with this increased power generation?

Extensive research with the industry has revealed that Round 3 grid capacity, the OFTO regime, the European Supergrid, HVDC cables, supply chain and skills shortages are all front of mind for professionals in both offshore and onshore wind at the moment.
Windpower Transmission & Distribution aims to bring together developers, utilities, contractors, consultants, regulators, government bodies, grid operators and service providers to discuss the solutions to industry challenges and to benchmark against best practice.

Hear from Ofgem, DECC, the National Grid and the EC as well as your peers and top-level service providers to uncover the solutions critical to your round 3 success.
