Collaboration and engagement
Our national and international collaborations help develop regulatory excellence by sharing expertise, information, and best practice.
We seek to reinforce our international standing and access to leading regulatory practice through our active involvement in various international forums and groups. Priority is given to the Global Offshore Wind Regulators’ Forum and the International Regulators’ Forum.
The Global Offshore Wind Regulators’ Forum brings together regulators from both experienced and emerging markets to discuss current regulatory and policy challenges in relation to offshore wind planning, licensing, and environmental oversight. The forum seeks to strengthen international cooperation on offshore wind through sharing information and lessons learned.
The OIR represents Australia as the current chair of the International Regulators’ Forum Offshore Renewable Energy Subcommittee. The forum provides an opportunity for offshore renewables safety regulators to come together to discuss emerging industry health and safety risks and regulatory challenges and matters of mutual interest.
