What is next for Japan's offshore wind market?

Join the Royal Danish Embassy in Tokyo and Danish Energy Export for an update on the latest developments, challenges and emerging opportunities in Japan's offshore wind sector.

Japan's offshore wind market is entering a period of significant change. The government is reviewing its support framework, with potential access to the Long-Term Decarbonization Auction (LTDA) scheme offering new perspectives for offshore wind projects. At the same time, floating offshore wind is gaining momentum as development opportunities expand into Japan's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).

However, challenges remain. Rising project costs, uncertainty around future auction conditions and the level of government support continue to influence investment decisions and project development.

What does this mean for the Japanese offshore wind market – and for Danish companies looking to explore or strengthen their position in Japan?

Join our webinar to gain insights into:
  • The latest developments and outlook for Japan's offshore wind market
  • Government policies, auction frameworks and upcoming tender activity
  • Key challenges facing developers and the offshore wind supply chain
  • Industry perspectives on current market conditions and future opportunities
  • Opportunities to connect with the Japanese wind industry through Wind Expo 2027 in Tokyo
