Global Wind Power Development Dialogue

WindEnergy Hamburg 2026: 

Global Wind Power Development Dialogue
Hosted by Hamburg Messe & World Wind Energy Association 

24 September 2026, 10:30–12:30 
Open Stage "Speakers´ Corner" in Hall A3.

Despite record growth in 2025, the wind industry remains geographically concentrated, leaving supply chains vulnerable to disruptions – highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions. To meet global renewable energy targets, accelerated deployment and resilient supply chains are critical, especially in regions with limited manufacturing capacity.

This CEO panel will focus on advancing the wind sector, addressing international trade, and strengthening supply chains. The Dialogue will explore:

• Opportunities and challenges for global wind sector growth
• Pathways for international cooperation
• Strategies to accelerate deployment
• Decarbonization of production processes and carbon border adjustments
• The role of good community engagement

Building on the format introduced at the WWEC2025 in Shantou, this event brings together global leaders to shape the future of wind power.

Panelists include:

• Ahmed bin Salim Al Abri, CEO, Nama Power & Water Procurement Company Oman
• Stephan Frense, CEO, Arge Netz 
• Bärbel Heidebroek, President, German Wind Energy Association BWE
• Dr. N. Karunamoorthy, Director, KP Group India
