9th Offshore Wind Asia Summit

The 9th Offshore Wind Asia Summit (OWA2026)

As offshore wind moves into deeper waters, OWA2026 serves as Asia's leading industry platform, bringing together global developers, turbine manufacturers, EPC contractors, design institutes, and core supply chain companies to assess market trends and drive project execution.

Targeting Emerging Markets, Seizing the Window for Global Expansion
With Asian emerging markets including South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, and Vietnam releasing offshore wind project opportunities, the Chinese supply chain is playing a central role in global project practice. The summit features the Asian Offshore Wind Strategy & Market Forum, providing in-depth analysis of policy frameworks and project pipelines across key markets. This enables companies to strategically enter high-barrier, technology-intensive markets like South Korea and Japan, as well as high-growth, cost-competitive markets such as the Philippines and Vietnam—building market intelligence and technical dialogue before projects officially go to tender.

Advancing Floating Technology, Unlocking Deepwater Potential
Floating offshore wind is expected to enter an accelerated commercial phase around 2026, becoming a mandatory path in Japan, South Korea, France, and the UK. The summit dedicates a Floating Offshore Wind Forum focusing on technology breakthroughs and project execution, addressing critical areas including foundations, mooring systems, and dynamic subsea cables. Discussions will explore the pathway from concept validation to engineering system optimization, enabling Chinese companies to capitalize on opportunities in large-scale structure manufacturing and the transfer of offshore engineering experience.

Connecting Global Procurement, Enabling Precise Supply-Demand Matchmaking
The summit features dedicated one-on-one procurement matchmaking sessions, bringing together global buyers including RWE, EDF Renewables, Corio Generation, Copenhagen Offshore Partners, ACEN, SK Ecoplant, China Three Gorges Renewables, and SPIC. Through pre-matched, closed-door meetings, suppliers gain direct access to project decision-makers. By combining procurement forums with business matchmaking, every interaction brings participants closer to genuine collaboration.

Multi-Energy Integration, Expanding the Boundaries of Ocean Energy
As a core track of the Offshore Energy & Equipment Global Conference (OEEG), OWA2026 promotes cross-sector integration of offshore oil & gas, offshore wind, wave, and hydrogen energy to build an efficient, stable, and low-carbon marine energy system, driving high-quality growth in the offshore industry.

We extend a sincere invitation to global industry colleagues to join us in Shanghai this November to co-create the blueprint for the future of offshore wind development!
