Matching business opportunities to members’ supply chain capabilities

A cluster of huge offshore wind developments puts the Humber at the forefront of the UK’s establishment of offshore renewable energy. These include existing wind farms and those at the development and planning stages.

Humber Marine & Renewables is playing an important role in the development of the sector and in gaining business for members, who have capabilities spanning the whole supply chain.

The organisation’s collaborative nature, its location and the broad skill set of the membership offers huge benefits to wind turbine manufactures and wind farm operations and maintenance.

High profile outward missions to the USA, Brazil, Norway, Denmark & Germany have led to the development of key working relationships with partners in the UK, Europe and beyond including:
