There is increasing pressure on marine space and resources for a number of different uses. Demand for offshore wind is growing at an especially rapid rate, which raises challenges for integration with other marine uses such as fishing. It takes a holistic approach to ensure that the marine environment is used equitably and sustainably, which is why sophisticated marine planning is crucial. This relies upon strong collaborative efforts from a number of diverse sectors and stakeholders.

Our next event will hear from those who collaborate on integrating fishing and offshore wind, highlighting the progress and challenges that have been experienced, where work needs to be done, and what the future holds for the UK’s marine environment.
