Conclusion (the committee's words)
Developing regional port infrastructure for the manufacture and assembly of floating offshore wind components will require significant investment but will be necessary for local supply chains and jobs. The full economic benefits of floating offshore wind should go to the region and not be lost overseas. To ensure this happens the highest level of ambition should be set for regional ports to deliver all the necessary manufacturing and assembly functions of floating offshore wind.
