OrbisEnergy
More than £8billion will be invested over the next 10 years around the East of England coastline into offshore renewable energy.
At the heart of this massive business opportunity, generating multi-million pound contracts will be OrbisEnergy, a state-of-the-art five storey building on the country's easternmost point.
Much more than just a building, OrbisEnergy will help drive local regeneration, giving suppliers and investors direct access to a dedicated business network.
With the southern North Sea emerging as the international proving ground for large-scale offshore wind farms, OrbisEnergy will become the flagship for businesses keen to capture the economic benefits from offshore wind, wave and tidal technologies.
Designed using cutting-edge environmentally friendly technology, the 3,300 square metre building will be a worldwide centre of excellence for offshore renewable energy.
The five floor building sits on Britain's most easterly location at Ness Point in Lowestoft, featuring adaptable state-of-the-art offices, conference and exhibition facilities, and high-tech communications links. It will be home to more than 30 small and medium sized companies involved in offshore renewable energy, as well as a centre of academic expertise, supporting new and existing businesses within a flourishing commercial and information network.
