Global Renewables Shipbrokers (GRS) has formed a strategic partnership with consultancy COLI Schiffahrt & Transport to target the offshore renewables market in Japan.
The aim of the cooperation is to provide “fast and first-class project development” in the Asian country’s offshore wind sector.
GRS managing partner Matthias Mross said: “With COLI a competent and experienced partner in the field of break bulk and project cargo – especially between Europe and Far East – is by our side.
“The market entry to Japan is ideal at this point in time. Currently all levers are set in motion to achieve the ambitious plans for the expansion of offshore wind energy in Japan.
“We have monitored the offshore renewables market in Japan for a long time.
“Now we take the opportunity to enter this market. Building on our experience and expertise, we can ensure that mistakes will be avoided and expansion targets achieved.”
