Business opportunities for metals sector in offshore wind
Offshore wind is set to grow from 10.4GW in 2021 to over 40GW by 2030. With a designed lifetime of 20-25 years, the first turbines are also starting to be…
Theatre : Made in UK
Great Britain now has its own robust regulatory framework for goods – the UKCA marking, and the UK’s domestic regime seeks to ensure consumers are protected from unsafe, and non-compliant goods. Businesses should get ready for the new regime as soon as possible to ensure they are compliant by 1 January 2023.
In this session BEIS will give an overview of what businesses, Trade Associations and organisations representing sectors which require the CE/UKCA marking need to do to prepare, who have a role or involvement in the manufacturing or supply of EC/UKCA marked goods into the GB market.
