South Korea is making strides in offshore wind energy, offering new opportunities for international collaboration. The South Korean government aims to reach 18.3GW of offshore wind energy by 2030. The Offshore Wind Power Competitive Bidding Roadmap plans to tender 7-8 GW of offshore wind projects over the next two years and its first 1.5 GW tender was announced on 25 October 2024. This seminar will explore these exciting developments and what this means for Dutch companies interested in South Korea.
