Offshore Wind Farms are particularly complex installations to insure. During construction, numerous fabricators and contractors are typically involved while, in operation, power transportation can often rely on assets belonging to third parties.   

Spanning sea to shore - from power generation to transmission to the onshore grid - most Offshore Wind Farms insure against physical damage, business interruption and third-party liabilities. 

Today, numerous clauses across various insurance policies address similar issues, such as serial loss, error in design, terrorism, minor works, maintenance, and total loss, to name just a few. At NIORD, we firmly believe that clear, consistent interpretation of such clauses and conditions is crucial for delivering reliable, transparent and cost-effective insurance solutions.  

London Wind Academy 

At this year’s London Wind Academy, we will explore the key contractual elements that govern Offshore Wind Farms during construction and operation, focusing on the issues that matter most. We will compare clauses regulating critical issues within the insurance of Offshore Wind Farms, considering perspectives from developers and operators, alongside insights from claims leaders and underwriting experts. 

As part of the drafting committee of the Nordic Offshore Wind Insurance Conditions (NOWIC), which will be launched 3rd November 2025, we will also examine how key issues are addressed within this new framework. All examples and case studies used during London Wind Academy will be based on NIORD’s fictional wind farms ClubFixed and ClubFloat. 

The London Wind Academy is for professionals who are, or who will be, involved with the insurance of Offshore Wind Farms whether as a broker, underwriter, reinsurer, developer, owner, operator or contractor.  

Attendance at both the seminar and the post-event social gathering is complimentary. RSVP by using the registration button below by Monday, 29th October. 

We look forward to seeing you in London!
