Join us live on the main page of BalticWind.EU for an exclusive webinar in partnership with Sensoria by Mistras, titled “On the road to Net Zero Industry – key technologies for offshore wind.” Don’t miss this opportunity to witness a melting pot of ideas, innovations, and strategies, especially in the context of the offshore wind industry in the European Union and the Baltic Sea region.
But that’s not all! Our webinar is also your front-row seat to discussions on the upcoming Wind Power Package, as announced by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The European Commission is set to unveil this package on October 24th, aiming to fast-track permitting, enhance auction systems in Member States, and address the unique challenges faced by the wind industry.
The package aims to fast-track permitting, enhance auction systems in Member States, and focus on skills, access to finance, and stable supply chains, thereby addressing the unique challenges faced by the wind industry.

Progressing Global Collaborations in Wind Energy
As we recently highlighted at [BalticWind](https://balticwind.eu/sensoria-and-bladena-partner-for-enhanced-offshore-wind-turbine-blade-integrity/), collaborations between companies from different parts of the world are unfolding, with Sensoria and Bladena serving as a prime example. These partnerships are not only bridging geographical and technological gaps but are also pioneering advancements in the wind energy sector, particularly in the realm of offshore wind turbines.
Sensoria, with its innovative technology that proficiently “listens” to wind turbine blades to detect potential issues, and Bladena, with its extensive expertise in maintaining and fortifying blade structural integrity, have embarked on a collaborative journey. Together, they are channeling their respective strengths and expertise to preemptively identify and rectify issues with the blades, ensuring a seamless and efficient energy generation process.
This collaboration underscores a commitment to ensuring that offshore wind turbines, especially those subjected to the rigors of harsh maritime conditions, continue to operate optimally. The goal is clear: to minimize unexpected maintenance, maximize clean energy production, and contribute to the global stride towards sustainable energy solutions.
Join the Conversation
This webinar is an invaluable opportunity for industry stakeholders, business leaders, and policy-makers to converge, discuss, and navigate through the specific challenges and opportunities within the offshore wind sector. It is not merely a discussion but a step towards aligning with the ambitious EU Net Zero Industry Plan, exploring, and possibly, pioneering the technologies and strategies that will steer the offshore wind industry into the future.
