OSW Power-to-X Summit

Offshore wind, as a gigawatt-scale source of renewable power, has the capability of providing energy to offtake beyond traditional grid interconnection. Market demand for green hydrogen production, green ammonia production, and carbon capture and storage is growing quickly as all industry sectors respond to the need for greener fuel sources.

The first event of its kind in North America, the OSW Power-to-X Summit will explore the world of alternative power offtakes for offshore wind projects, including hydrogen, ammonia, and ethanol production, as well as carbon sequestration and other forms of utility-scale power demands. Learn what the implications will be for supply chain companies, policymakers, workforce development, and the entire ecosystem surrounding offshore wind.

Join us in Houston for the inaugural Summit to hear from experts across different industries and explore how these alternative offtake mechanisms will shape the supply chain of the future.

Additional Information

Offshore wind, as a uniquely consistent and large-scale form of renewable energy, provides a rare opportunity to deliver carbon-free power to major sources of demand. Alternative energy offtakes provide a market expansion opportunity for many industries, adding additional revenue streams for projects on top of traditional interconnection onto the grid.

The Summit will address many exploratory questions related to offshore wind power offtake. For example, it is critical to understand how hydrogen electrolyzer strategies will impact supply chain development. Does it make sense for electrolyzers to be distributed throughout the array? Centralized for offshore production? Or centralized for onshore production? Alternative offtake options may also offer an opportunity to power long-duration energy storage systems, providing more reliability to the grid.

As alternative energy offtakes develop, supply chain companies need to better understand how this may impact project timing and design. The OSW Power-to-X Summit will explore these questions, as well as issues surrounding cost, permitting challenges, and what co-location strategies make the most sense. The Summit will also serve as a platform for companies to showcase their newest and most innovative ideas, moving the market forward and finding creative solutions for common problems.
