Excursion day to WindWorks Jelsa

Published on
November 5, 2024

Experience a trip into the Norwegian fjord landscape on the world's first electrical fast passenger boat, the EV Rygerelektra. The destination is Berakvam and Jelsa, to what can become a world-leading building- and assembly site for floating offshore wind systems.

This new industry segment requires sites large enough and suitable for building and assembling huge energy systems.

Berkvam, with its deep fjords and what currently is the largest rock quarry in Europe, is a unique place for developing a large and optimized facility for the offshore wind industry.

Studies conducted confirm that Wind Works Jelsa can become one of the largest facilities in Europe for foundation building and assembly of floating wind systems, as a one-stop shop prior to tow out and final hook up.

High Wind 2023 offer its participants this unique opportunity to learn more about the project and to visit the site.


If you are curious to join the excursion to WWJ, please get inspired by a previous visit with Giles Dickson and NRK Rogaland

This event is kindly sponsored by: Rogaland Fylkeskommune, Ryfylke IKS and DNB.

The HighWind conference and excursion day is presented by the partners: City of Stavanger, the ONS Foundation, The Norwegian Offshore Wind Cluster and Stavanger Chamber of Commerce.For more information: Birger Haraldseid  +47 908 93 186
