This merger marks a significant step in strengthening the (inter)national positioning of the Dutch offshore wind industry.
The merger brings together two organizations that have long been committed to promoting and supporting the international ambitions of the Dutch offshore energy sector. By joining forces, they form one unified association with a single, powerful voice both internationally and within the Netherlands.
Jeroen de Graaf, Director of NMT-IRO, comments: “This merger creates a stronger, more unified representation of the Dutch offshore wind sector abroad. By combining our knowledge, networks, and initiatives, we increase our impact and are better positioned to support the international growth ambitions of our members.”
Wim Jenniskens, Chairman of HHWE, adds: “This is a strategic alliance that unites the strongest players in the Dutch maritime, offshore, and renewable sectors. Together, we’re building a powerful platform for the future.”
The merger offers clear benefits:
Leading up to the merger, the HHWE team will gradually integrate into the NMT-IRO office. A joint member briefing will be held in September to provide more information on the next steps.
