The EastWind Cluster established in 2021 will drive the implementation of the Offshore Wind Sector Deal (“OWSD”) objectives in so far as they relate to the Eastern region.
Representing and giving a single voice to operators, developers, local government, and the supply chain across the Eastern region.
