15. Project background
Eastern Wind Energy Group was established by a consortia of
companies with a common goal in the East of England
Its members operate in a wide range of sectors including marine
services, power generation components and design consultancy
All have identified Renewable Energy as a growth market they
can adapt products for, but had encountered difficulties
breaking into the supply chains

18. What we have achieved
EWEG has represented its shareholders and brought attention to
the opportunities the Eastern region of the UK offers. Through this,
its members have gained access to global wind energy sector
EWEG has developed a network of companies within the region
who have the capacity and capability to supply products and
services into the wind and marine energy sectors
As a result the Eastern region now has the opportunity to attract
and support the development of the industry for Round 3 and
beyond
18
19. Where do we go now?
Using the knowledge and contacts we have developed within
the wind industry, EWEG plans to continue developing and
showcasing the supply chain it represents
Using the capabilities of our shareholders, we can offer technical
and business services to:
- Enable companies currently outside the industry to develop
products and services for the industry
- Enable developers, Turbine OEM’s and major first tier
manufacturers to develop their supply chains in the UK
19
20. In summary
If the UK and Europe are to benefit over the long term from the
developments in the wind turbine industry, we need to both
attract the industry and enable them to develop supply chains
within the UK
By leveraging its shareholders, EWEG is able to provide support to
cover all aspects of supply chain development with the entire
spectrum of companies within the supply chain
For companies trying to enter the supply chain, we can help you
identify the products and services which best suit your capabilities
and develop and market them to the industry
