Background
Though formed as a wind power lobby and research body, BWEA has now expanded to represent a number of technologies including gas turbines and marine energy.
"The British Wind Energy Association is the trade and professional body for the UK wind and marine renewables industries. Formed in 1978, and with 463 corporate members, BWEA is the leading renewable energy trade association in the UK. In 2004, BWEA expanded its mission to champion wave and tidal energy and use the Association's experience to guide these technologies along the same path to commercialisation."
"We have a professional staff of fourteen at our Islington offices and an annual turnover in excess of one million pounds."[1]
"BWEA plays a crucial role in bringing together all the key players around the vital issues affecting industry through our working groups and events. Members of BWEA range from the small companies to the largest international corporations, providing us with a united and representative voice and our members with fantastic networking opportunities."[2]
"The Association works closely with the European Wind Energy Association on matters of European policy and has 3 directors of this body. EWEA concentrates on European policy matters, i.e. originating in Brussels, and also promotes wind energy in other territories which may be of interest to member companies.
BWEA significantly funds the Scottish Renewables Forum (SRF), which is our preferred avenue for lobbying in Scotland. Although energy is not devolved to Scotland, there are national and institutional issues which warrant working closely with SRF, representing all renewables in Scotland. This arrangement has been in place for 2 years and works very well. BWEA's CEO and an additional board member sit on the board of SRF." [3]
