Interreg IVB North Sea Region Programme (2007-2013) - AimBy connecting different sectors and different levels of government and administration, POWER cluster will establish a sustainable offshore wind cluster.

Innovation and learning within the cluster will be enhanced. The combined parts of the supply chain will allow wider economic development to take place through a series of multiplier effects in income, employment, research and productivity performance. The main aims are to make the NSR: BackgroundThe offshore wind industry (OWI) is at a turning point, with the first large scale offshore wind farms (OWF) being built over the next years. The regions have varied settings, due to their diverse domestic wind markets, and are characterized by individual strengths and weaknesses. The partnership aims to tackle the crucial challenges (skilled work force, supply chain enhancement, public acceptance and transnational complementarity) by cooperation beyond borderlines and sector barriers. POWER cluster. POWER cluster is a project that aims to establish a business cluster for offshore wind power in the North Sea Region.

It is part-funded by the North Sea Region Programme which is part of the transnational branch (IVB) of Interreg, one of the regional policy instruments of the European Union under the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). It is the successor of the POWER project funded under Interreg IIIB.[1] POWER cluster is led by the Bremerhaven Economic Development Company in Germany together with 17 other participants from Germany, United Kingdom, Denmark, The Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.[2] Offshore wind power[edit] Compared to onshore wind power, offshore wind power is more complex and costly to install and maintain but also has several key advantages.

Winds are typically stronger and more stable at sea, resulting in significantly higher production per unit installed. The wind resources over Europe's seas represent a vast, local source of clean, renewable energy. Offshore Center Danmark.
