Offshore Wind Growth Partnership (OWGP) was established as part of the UK Offshore Wind Sector Deal in 2019.
OWGP promotes closer collaboration across the supply chain, manages structured productivity improvement programmes and facilitates shared growth opportunities between developers and the supply chain.
Up to 2030, OWGP will invest up to £100 million in projects, activities, products and services that provide direct support to UK companies that are active in or are planning to enter the offshore wind supply chain.
OWGP delivers a combination of business support services and funding to grow companies, drive greater collaboration in the industry, increase business competitiveness, champion innovation and attract new entrants with transferable capabilities to the sector.
