Wind Energy Academy

 

Latvia’s wind energy potential is significant, both for onshore and offshore, but the country is lagging behind its neighbors and others. Only 137.4 MW of capacity have been installed, with wind farm projects taking too long to build. The webinar series “Wind Energy Academy: Latvia”  aims to explain and clarify the wind development process, from scoping to building.

During at least 10 webinars dedicated to different stages of wind energy development both practical and legal aspects will be addressed. Experts and lawyers will share their knowledge on:

  1. Planning and pre-development
  2. Development
  3. Construction
  4. Operation
  5. Energy market and balancing.
