EERA DeepWind

The EERA DeepWind conference takes place every January in beautiful Trondheim, Norway.

The programme includes a mix of plenary presentations with broad appeal and presentations in parallel sessions or by posters on specific science and technology themes. Presenters get the opportunity to publish in an open access journal, IOP: Special DeepWind issue of The Journal of Physics, subject to a successful peer review.

About EERA DeepWind

EERA DeepWind is an international event aiming to present the best ongoing research and innovation related to deep sea offshore wind farms, both bottom-fixed and floating. The conference has been developing every year since 2004, and is established as an important venue on deep sea offshore wind R&D organized by SINTEF, NTNU and EERA JP wind.
