WindEurope has announced that the WindEurope Annual Event 2024 will take place in Bilbao on 19-21 March 2024. It’s the third time Bilbao is hosting a WindEurope Annual Event after 2019 and 2022.
With more than 28 GW of wind farms Spain is the second-biggest market for wind energy in Europe. Wind covers 24% of Spain’s electricity demand and contributes more than €5.5bn to its economy. It provides more than 32,000 jobs. So far all of Spain’s wind farms are onshore. But the Government is set to launch Spain’s first auctions for offshore wind in 2023. Spain aims to install up to 3 GW by 2030.
The event will combine an exhibition and a conference. On the exhibition floor 400 companies will showcase the latest trends in manufacturing, technology, logistics and other services. The wide-ranging conference programme will bring together 300 speakers to discuss all aspects of onshore and offshore wind, electrification, industrial policy, floating wind, renewable hydrogen, and many other topics. Stand sales for the WindEurope Annual Event 2024 in Bilbao will start in March 2023.
