European Hydrogen Backbone – Greece – MENA

European Hydrogen Backbone  – Greece  –  MENA

With this visit, we aim to highlight Norway’s expertise in floating offshore wind. Delegates gained valuable insights into the latest floater technologies and explored opportunities to leverage Norway’s offshore oil and gas legacy for the benefit of offshore wind initiatives. This marks another significant stride in connecting Greek and Norwegian offshore wind companies, enhancing the competitiveness of both nations in this sector, says Tor Arne Johnsen, who is responsible for the Greek market in Norwegian Offshore Wind. 

Discussions during the visit emphasised the common challenges and bottlenecks faced by both nations, underscoring the importance of closer cooperation. A key focus of the partnership is to advance the establishment of offshore wind farms in Greece, capitalising on the region’s highly promising potential in this sector, with the aim of making the first projects operational by 2030.
