Apologies for the delay in posting this blog. We have all been working tirelessly behind the scenes to finalise the merger between WREA (was) and World of Renewables to form your new body – WoREA. Our name, The World Renewable Energy Association, remains the same but our website and new home has changed:Â www.worldofrenewables.com.
As the Chairman of an association of 300,000+ members, I am often asked which events they should attend for the coming year. This is a broad topic and mostly subjectional, none-the-less, based on my personal experiences, particularly during 2018 I have listed below some key trade shows and conferences that have rewarded our association and our members most in recent years.
WIND ENERGY
EVENT: Global Offshore Wind 2019
DATE: 25-26 June 2019

RenewableUK Says: Uniting 2800 offshore wind experts, 150 exhibitors and 200 speakers from over 40 countries, Global Offshore Wind 2019 offers unparalleled networking opportunities to grow your business.
WoREA says:Â GOW 2019 is a must attend event for offshore wind professionals, providing good networking opportunities with industry experts and power supply businesses. Good level of interactive sessions to attend for those looking to get more involved.
