Through a series of live discussions at the ‘COP26 Energy Transition Hub’ the Offshore Wind Industry Council will explore the challenges and opportunities in growing the UK’s offshore wind workforce. In doing so, they’ll explore the lessons other countries can learn, and how we can ensure a Just Transition from carbon intensive industries to clean energy.
