The Offshore Wind Podcast from GWEC
Welcome to the Offshore Wind Podcast, hosted by Stewart Mullin, GWEC's Chief Industry Officer, and Rebecca Williams, GWEC's Deputy CEO.
Offshore wind is one of the world's fastest growing energy sources.
Many nations are embracing offshore wind as a key tool to deliver on net zero and sustainability targets, while building clean industries that drive economic growth.
Turbines are bigger and more powerful than ever, the supply chain is developing in every region and new markets are opening up thanks to action-focused policy developments that build on political ambition.
The rise of floating offshore wind, increasing interest in power-to-x and green hydrogen solutions are creating the basis for offshore wind to propel the global energy transition forwards.
The Offshore Wind Podcast, from the Global Wind Energy Council, looks at the issues facing the offshore wind industry today and tomorrow.

Offshore Wind: What's all the excitement about?
Offshore wind has quite literally blown away everyone's expectations, growing rapidly as an industry over the last decade to become a key piece of the energy transition puzzle. From its early days as a niche technology in Europe, to its current status as one of the fastest growing energy power sources in markets across the world, offshore wind has come a long way - and we are only just at the beginning of harnessing its potential!
In the first episode of the series, hosts Ben Backwell and Stewart Mullin discuss how the offshore industry has evolved and grown, their journey to becoming advocates of this emerging technology, and why policy makers and governments are increasingly turning their attention to offshore wind.
GWEC's Offshore Wind Podcast is hosted by Stewart Mullin, GWEC's Chief Industry Officer, and Rebecca Williams, GWEC's Deputy CEO, who leads on all GWEC's Offshore Wind work.
The podcast, or 'show' as Stewart still likes to call it, features leading voices from across the sector, whether that is large OEMs, key supply chain manufacturers or political leaders driving policy, to talk about how we can all work together to deliver on offshore wind's enormous potential.
