AWEA OFFSHORE WINDPOWER 2012 will be held at the Virginia Beach Convention Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Located near the industrial and maritime facilities of Norfolk and Hampton Roads, Virginia Beach is ideally suited for both this event and the build-out of an offshore wind industry. The area is an industrial and maritime hub. It is home to a number of world class ports, as well as the Norfolk Naval Station, the world's largest naval station.

Stronger Focus on U.S. Offshore Wind Project Developers
This year’s event will have an even stronger focus on the developers who are planning and building the initial wave of U.S. offshore wind projects. The new Developer’s Pavilion, located on the exhibit hall floor, is comprised of leading companies in U.S. offshore wind development, and creates one central location to network with developers. AWEA and the Offshore Wind Development Coalition (OffshoreWindDC) will host the exclusive Developers Breakfast, a private, informal morning meeting where top exhibitors and sponsors are invited to network face-to-face and one-on-one with offshore wind developers. This superb opportunity is only available to select sponsors and exhibitors; please contact [email protected] for consideration.
The conference also hosts the always-popular Developers Panel as part of the conference education program. Hear insights from leading U.S. offshore wind project developers, and get the status of their projects.
