SUMMARY:Webinar | Brazil & LATAM Offshore Wind Supply Chain Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Marine Renewables Canada (MRC) invites you to join us for a webinar on Wednesday\, January 15\, 2025 exploring opportunities in offshore wind in Latin America\, with a focus on Brazil. \n\nBrazil\, and more broadly Latin America (LATAM)\, has the potential to be an important export market for Canadian offshore wind (OSW) capabilities. A few countries like Brazil\, Colombia and Chile are making strides in OSW development. MRC has delved deeper into the Brazilian market specifically\, and boarder LATAM region\, to gather market intelligence and better understand market potential and entry points for MRC members and Atlantic Canadian companies. \nWith support from Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA)\, MRC has commissioned a study to ascertain the realistic commercial opportunities for Canadian firms in the LATAM OSW development markets\, with specific emphasis on Brazil\, and align those with the capacity and competitive capabilities of the Atlantic Canadian service and supply chain. This study is meant to provide specific actionable advice that can improve the chances of commercial success by Canadian industrial supply chain companies to capture contracts on commercial terms in support of the development of the Brazilian OSW sector and provide a broader overview of other countries in LATAM that hold potential for OSW development. \nAs a follow-up activity to this study\, MRC will be leading a mission to Brazil in June 2025. This mission will also include a side-visit to the State of Ceara\, located in the northeastern part of the country\, on the Atlantic coast\, where many of the OSW projects are poised to develop. \nJoin MRC’s upcoming webinar to learn more about: \n· Latin America’s OSW market\, with a focus on Brazil’s potential and what opportunities exist for MRC members and Atlantic Canadian companies \n· Preliminary results of the study led by Envigour Policy \n· Details on MRC’s planned 2025 mission to Brazil \n· A new database tool that has been created in conjunction with the study to assist Canadian companies in maximizing the benefits of cooperation and collaboration by helping to identify potential partners or gaps in the Brazilian supply chain.

Not just from the federal and provincial government levels but also from the developers and the local supply chain.During my time in Canada the dialogue with friends\, colleagues and the local community has changed from not just wanting a reliable energy source during a storm but also having greener energy options and stopping reliance on coal. Now that there’s been a shift in thinking\, it’s time to take action.   In Atlantic Canada momentum is building around offshore wind (OSW) and other renewable energies. Floating wind developments on the West Coast will play a key part in balancing their future energy demands. Throughout Canada\, decreasing remote communities’ dependency on diesel has to be a key part in not only the energy transition but also in providing energy independence for these communities.I believe in a collaborative approach across the supply chain\, educational institutions\, and the provinces. As a collective we are in the best position to make the most of our resources\, facilities\, and sites to support the offshore renewable industry. Together we can maximize this opportunity and make it an industry that inspires a younger generation and provides energy sources for future generations. If elected\, I will work with our members to support such an approach to make the most of the opportunity in front of us. \nI am a mechanical engineer / naval architect with more than 17 years experience working in the marine renewables sector. I first started my career in the UK performing CFD analysis and physical model testing on renewable energy devices. I moved to Aberdeen and supported clients as owners’ engineer for the installation of subsea turbines and supported OSW developers. I have spent the past five years in Canada as an energy and marine consultant with a focus on supporting Nova Scotia’s tidal energy developers and providing consulting services to OSW developers in the Northeastern USA to gain energy purchase agreements.  \nIt would be my distinct pleasure to be part of MRC’s efforts to ensure marine renewable energy plays an important role in energy transition and building Canada’s blue economy.

SUMMARY:MRC Webinar: Offshore Wind Energy in Atlantic Canada - Geological Constraints and Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:The potential for offshore wind development in Atlantic Canada is quickly becoming a hot topic and with good reason – the region has some of the best sites in the world for both fixed and floating offshore wind development from both a wind resource and geophysical perspective. \nThis webinar will feature an overview of preliminary work led by the Geological Survey of Canada to assess geological constraints and opportunities. Several Atlantic Canadian sites with available high-resolution geophysical data will be reviewed for comparison with production and planned offshore wind farm sites found elsewhere. \nDate/Time: Wednesday\, May 25th @ 1pm ADT \nFormat:  \n\nIntroduction (5 min)\nPresentation (30 min)\nQ&A (15 min)\n\nSpeaker: Jordan Eamer\, Geological Survey of Canada \n \nJordan was born and raised on Vancouver Island in British Columbia\, where his research interests in coastal geomorphology and Quaternary geology developed. Jordan’s research has until recently been focussed on the coastal areas of BC\, where he worked up and down the coast in areas such as Haida Gwaii\, the Hakai Protected Area\, and western Vancouver Island. His focus was sediment budgets for coastal restoration projects\, climate change adaptation\, coastal erosion\, and late Quaternary reconstruction and paleogeography. He did a postdoc at the University of Calgary where he was a project manager/science advisor for UAV application development. \nFrom there\, Jordan took a bit of a turn (east\, to be precise) and joined the federal Public Service with Parks Canada Agency in 2017\, working for the Sable Island National Park Reserve. While there\, he worked in operations: landing planes\, forecasting storms\, and fixing buildings. He always kept his eye on the science and in 2019 Jordan joined the Geological Survey of Canada at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in Dartmouth as a Marine Geoscientist. \nCurrently\, Jordan works on issues from the coast to the edge of the continental shelf\, including coastal erosion and evolution\, Late Quaternary reconstruction of land- and seascapes and what processes led to the landform assemblages we find today\, and continental shelf seabed conditions\, infrastructure\, and marine renewables.

SUMMARY:MRC Mission to the 2022 International Partnering Forum (IPF) on Offshore Wind - April 26-28 in Atlantic City\, NJ
DESCRIPTION:NOTE – This mission is now SOLD OUT \nMarine Renewables Canada (MRC) is leading a mission to the International Offshore Wind Partnering Forum (IPF)\, taking place this April 26-28\, 2022 in Atlantic City\, New Jersey. \nIPF is the premiere offshore wind energy conference in North America\, hosted by the Business Network for Offshore Wind. The US offshore wind industry is growing and so are the opportunities to get involved. IPF is an excellent opportunity for Canadian businesses and organizations to connect with global leaders and businesses in the supply chain\, participate in multiple networking opportunities\, and get timely and relevant updates on the industry\, from technology and policy\, to safety and siting. \nMRC is leading this mission to help its members and Canadian companies pursue opportunities in the US offshore wind supply chain\, profile capabilities and strengths\, and build relationships that assist with international business development efforts. \nRegistration to participate in this mission is now open – scroll down for the outline of mission benefits/activities and the registration link. \nBEFORE YOU REGISTER – A few important pieces of information are below for your review:  \nFunding & Travel Restrictions/Advisories\nMRC has secured funding for this mission’s activities (booth\, delegate passes for mission participants\, briefing session etc.) but this funding does not cover travel costs (see below for more on that).  Because this funding is for an activity that requires travel outside of Canada and because the government of Canada’s international travel restrictions are still set at level 2\, please be advised that: \n\nYou should check the Government of Canada’s Travel Advice and Advisories before travelling and fully understand the risks and requirements involved with respect to Canada and the destination country requirements. MRC recommends that you research COVID-19 testing requirements for the United States and Canada in the lead up to this mission. It is your responsibility to arrange and cover the costs of any testing that may be required.\nThe decision to participate in the noted mission and any related travel is your choice and everyone is responsible for their own personal safety abroad. The Government of Canada takes the safety and security of Canadians abroad very seriously and provides credible and timely information to enable everyone to make well-informed decisions regarding travel abroad.\nTravelers should know that restrictions can change quickly and may be imposed by countries with little warning. Should you choose to travel outside Canada\, travel plans may be severely disrupted. For example\, travelers may be forced to remain outside of Canada longer than expected and should not depend on the Government of Canada or MRC for assistance related to changes to travel plans. MRC is not responsible for any additional costs you may incur as a result of participating in this mission.\nBefore making travel plans\, you may want to research and obtain travel insurance that is available specifically to address travel interruptions due to COVID-19.\n\n\nTravel funding for companies – MRC has also applied for partial travel funding through Global Affairs Canada for any MRC member companies (must be a Canadian company – one per company) who participates in this mission. This funding application is just now being reviewed and Global Affairs Canada has indicated they would have confirmation to us by end of March (if approved).\n** because of this unknown\, you must assume you will be responsible for your own travel costs and factor that into your decision to participate in this mission. We will let you know as soon as we have more information to pass on.\n\n\nMission Benefits & Activities: \n\nBooth space in the exhibition – We have secured a 300 sq ft booth space in the exhibition to allow visibility and networking and to provide a means for basic company promotion (via company brochures and material at the booth).  The booth will also have a few tables & chairs for meeting space and will be staffed by MRC at all times.\nCanada Booklet and Booth PPT – you will be listed in the “Canada Booklet” that will developed for this mission and will include mission participants company profile\, logo\, contact and website.  You will also have the opportunity to have a 5-slide presentation looping on-screen at the booth.\nIPF Conference delegate pass – as part of the MRC mission\, you will receive one (1) full conference delegate pass ($2500US value)\nConference B2B – As a conference full delegate\, you will have access to the conference B2B platform that will allow you to connect with and set meetings with other conference attendees / key industry players.\n*We will not be contracting a dedicated matchmaker for this event but as a conference delegate\, you will have access to the above mentioned B2B platform\nPrivate meeting room at event headquarter hotel – in addition to the meeting space at the booth\, we have secured a private meeting room that the conference venue that can be used by mission participants.\nDelegate briefing session – We will host and in-country (informal) briefing session (likely a dinner) that will allow all mission participants the opportunity to meet and network\, and allow MRC staff an opportunity to review mission details and activities with participants.\n\nHotel Accommodations & travel to Atlantic City \n\nHotel Accommodations – Unfortunately the conference venue hotel (Sheraton Atlantic City Convention Center Hotel) is now sold out and the organizers have told me there will be no more rooms added to the group block as there isn’t any left to add.\n\nThey are in the process securing additional blocks of rooms at other hotels close to the conference centre (there are many) – They will update their website with that information soon – https://www.offshorewindus.org/2022ipf/hotel-venue/\nSuggested arrival date is April 25 with departure date of April 29 (or late on the 28th).\n\n Travel to Atlantic City – There are no direct flights from Canada into Atlantic City so some ground travel will be necessary. The closest option is to fly into Philadelphia and travel to Atlantic City via car\, bus or train. All 3 options will take approx. 1 – 2 hours with car being fastest and the train being the slowest (bus is the cheapest). CLICK HERE for details on all 3 options.\nNOTE – You can also fly into Newark and travel to Atlantic City from there (flight options/times seem much better than into Philadelphia)\, but it’s a bit longer travel (about a 2 hour drive).  You can also take a bus or the train – CLICK HERE for details\n\nThe fee to participate in this mission is $750 + tx (this includes your IPF conference full delegate pass – $2500US value)
