Save the date for Havvindkonferansen 2023
The Minister of Petroleum and Energy Terje Aasland will participate at Havvindkonferansen in Oslo October 17.
This yearly conference discusses issues regarding the home market in Norway. Education, ports and infrastructure, costs and new areas will naturally be important subjects in the program. The conference is in Norwegian.
This year, we are expanding the program with B2Bs and networking. We are soon opening registration, but you can already now send us an email if you are interested in participating, and we will send you the registration link when ready.
New report on higher education in offshore wind
Commissioned by Tekna and Norwegian Offshore Wind, Menon Economics has mapped the skills needed in the offshore wind sector in Norway. The report will be launched in Oslo August 24.
The purpose of the report is to identify whether there is a gap between the skills that are in demand and the educational offer that exists. This is the first report of its kind where such a detailed analysis has been made.
We will launch the report in Oslo on 24 August. Here, Menon Economics will present the findings and we will receive comments from the education sector and the offshore wind industry. The meeting is open to the press.

⏰UPCOMING EVENTS 📆
2023 er året hvor det blir klart hvem som får bygge ut de første storskala havvindparkene i Norge. Næringen har jobbet beinhardt for å få fart på første fase. Ambisjonene vi har satt oss krever nye areal, nye løsninger og nye ideer. Er samfunnet rigget for at vi skal nå målene våre?
Norges ambisjoner på havvind skaper titusenvis av nye arbeidsplasser. Spørsmålet er: Hvem står klare til å ta dem? Industrien selv er tydelige på at behovet for høyere utdanning innen havvind er stort. Ny teknologi skal få kostnadene ned og lønnsomheten opp. Ny infrastruktur må planlegges og bygges. Ny forskning skal bidra til å sikre en skånsom utvikling på naturens premisser.

Havvind er den nye norske storindustrien. Den representerer en ny tid med ny giv. Likevel tar vi med oss gamle maktstrukturer fra olje og gass.
