Welcome to the 2024 edition of ImpactWind summer school! This year’s edition is hosted by the University of Bergen.
The aim is to give an introduction to offshore wind development combined with more in-depth work with some topics.
The speakers will be a mix of academics from UiB, UiS, UiA and NORCE, and people from the business sector.
The summer school was a very good introduction to offshore wind and provided us with competencies that proved to be very useful in our work with both Sørlige Nordsjø II and Utsira Nord.
