Smart Energy Week 2026

We will take part in Smart Energy Week 2026, one of Asia’s leading clean energy exhibitions, taking place from March 17–19 at Tokyo Big Sight, Japan. David Carracosa, COO, and Immanuel Capano, CCO, will be present at the event within the EU Business Hub pavilion (Hall 7 – East), representing European innovation in floating offshore wind technology.

Smart Energy Week brings together hundreds of companies across renewable energy sectors, including wind, hydrogen, solar, and grid technologies to foster collaboration, investment, and market expansion in the Asia-Pacific region.

Through the EU Business Hub programme, We will highlight how our SATH (Swinging Around Twin Hull) technology provides a cost-efficient, scalable solution for deep-water wind sites worldwide. Our participation participation will focus on exploring collaborations with Japanese energy companies, engineering firms, shipyards and financial players interested in developing floating offshore wind projects in the country.

Japan’s moment for offshore wind

Japan is currently at a critical turning point in its energy transition. As part of its roadmap toward climate neutrality by 2050, the government has set ambitious offshore wind targets:

• 10 GW of installed offshore wind capacity by 2030.
• 30 to 45 GW of installed capacity by 2040.

Because a significant share of Japan’s offshore wind potential lies in deep waters, traditional bottom-fixed structures face limitations. With estimates pointing to up to 424 GW of technical capacity suitable for floating projects, floating solutions are essential. Technologies like Saitec Offshore Technologies’ SATH concept are key not only to supporting power system decarbonisation but also to fostering local industrial supply chains and innovation ecosystems.

Visitors can meet Saitec’s team in our booth to explore collaboration opportunities and learn more about current projects and technological advancements driving the industrialization of floating offshore wind.
