On December 3, 2018 some of the major world players in offshore wind and logistics met at the final conference as part of the GLOBAL WIND ENERGY SHIPPING AND LOGISTICS PhD research project. Here, they discussed what the future of the offshore wind value chain was expected to look like with focus on Shipping and Logistics. There was much to discuss at that point in time where the offshore wind turbines were getting bigger and the supply chain was globalizing. At the same time, the first offshore wind farms without government subsidies would soon be built and this had put pressure on costs. Nowhere in the wind industry were these changes felt more directly than within the area of logistics including transport on land, at sea, in the air and at hub points like ports and warehouses.
