Session description The session will look at the state and growth potentials of the offshore markets around Europe and how governments are tackling and programming this development. The presentations will discuss the role of governments and authorities in finding solutions to supply chain constraints and dealing with applications and authorisations through maritime spatial planning and supportive legislative regimes. |

Session description Today’s electricity markets are driven by daily and seasonal changes in demand, which call on different types of electricity generation with different costs to be dispatched. Ongoing projects such as Kriegers Flak and a future North Sea Grid will create regional markets dominated by large amounts of wind constituting market areas with predominantly low prices. This session will analyse the different impacts of a large in-feed of offshore wind on regional markets in both the North and Baltic Sea against the background of the recent adoption of the 3rd Liberalisation Package. The session will also examine best market design options. |

Session description The panel discussion will be based around the main themes of the ‘European Policy Workshop on Offshore Wind Power Deployment’, namely: market mechanisms, marine spatial planning and grids. Dedicated to improving the framework conditions for offshore wind power deployment, earlier editions of this workshop took place in Berlin (December 2007), the "Copenhagen Strategy" (2005) and Egmond (October 2004). |
