The Floating Offshore Wind Conference returns to London on March 3, 2026, bringing together senior developers, investors, policymakers, ports, and engineering leaders for a single-stream day focused on what it will take to industrialize floating offshore wind at scale.
Now in its third year, the conference has built a reputation for cutting through ambition and addressing the practical realities facing the sector—from fragile supply chains and investor risk appetite to grid capacity, port infrastructure, and long-term operations and maintenance.
Set against a backdrop of accelerating targets and intensifying competition for capital, the 2026 agenda is designed to mirror the real-world progression of floating offshore wind projects. Sessions move from supply chain resilience and financing, through bankability and environmental considerations, to ports, platforms, O&M, and grid infrastructure—offering a joined-up view of what must align to move projects from concept to commercial reality.
The program features live project and market updates alongside frank discussion on bottlenecks, cost pressures, and delivery risk. Senior voices from across development, finance, government, and engineering will share lessons learned from early projects, test and demo programs, and adjacent industries—with a clear emphasis on what needs to change to unlock scale.
Contributors include senior leaders from across the floating offshore wind ecosystem, with representation from Vårgrønn, Equinor, ESB, Archer Wind, HSBC, Barclays, Aviva, The Crown Estate, DESNZ, The Scottish Government, and The Carbon Trust. Discussions draw directly on live project experience and market insight, with a clear focus on delivery, commercial viability, and scaling floating offshore wind from early projects to industrialized deployment.
The Floating Offshore Wind Conference: Technical Advances & Commercial Success takes place on March 3, 2026, at One America Square, London.
