The UK and Japan signed an Offshore Wind Industrial Compact on November 10, 2026, building on their March 2025 Strategic Economic Policy and Trade Dialogue, during which the two countries agreed to strengthen cooperation on offshore wind development, supply chains, and investment. [1] The new agreement establishes a framework for joint investment in offshore wind projects in both countries, testing and demonstration of floating and deepwater wind technologies, and development of more competitive and resilient turbine supply chains. [2] The UK will also share expertise with Japan on project financing, regulatory frameworks, grid integration, and workforce development. Implementation will be coordinated by the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and Great British Energy, alongside Japan's METI, with annual director-level discussions to monitor progress. The agreement builds on earlier bilateral efforts to expand offshore wind cooperation and support the development of the industry in both markets.
