In Australia, both the onshore and offshore wind market are experiencing significant growth. Onshore wind projects have expanded due to favourable government policies and increasing investments, leading to a surge in renewable energy capacity.  Meanwhile, the offshore wind sector is gaining momentum, with several large-scale projects in the planning stages, driven by ambitious renewable energy targets of the Australian government.

The government aims to significantly boost onshore wind capacity, targeting around 20GW of installed capacity by 2030. Current projections indicate that onshore wind could account for a substantial portion of Australia’s energy mix, contributing to a renewable energy target of around 50% by 2030.

For offshore wind, Australia is relatively new to the sector. The government has set a target for up to 10GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030 and is planning for around 30GW by 2040. Various projects are in the pipeline, with investments and regulatory frameworks being established to facilitate growth. If you want to be part of this development from the beginning, this is the time to join this event, start your network and familiarize yourself with the Australian market!
