Hornsea 4: A turning point for clean power and energy investment?

The future of offshore wind and Clean Power 2030

The cancellation of Orsted’s Hornsea 4 offshore wind farm has sent ripples through the energy sector, raising critical questions about the future of offshore wind and the UK’s Clean Power 2030 ambitions.

In this webinar, experts from LCP’s Energy, Financial Analysis, and Investment teams will unpack the findings of their latest Power Insights report and explore the broader implications of this major industry development.

During this webinar, we'll be touching on the following key points:

• Clean Power 2030 at risk? Assessing the emissions and policy impact of losing a CfD-backed project of Hornsea 4’s scale.
• An isolated event, or symptomatic of the offshore wind sector? Examining the circumstances which led to Orsted cancelling its Hornsea 4 contract.
• Investor sentiment shift: Analysing how the attitudes of energy transition fund managers towards offshore wind have evolved - and whether CfD structures still offer the right risk-reward balance.

Join us to gain expert perspectives on the state of the offshore wind sector and the implications for investors, policymakers, and the UK’s clean energy transition.
