<p>The Department for International Trade (DIT) undertakes a range of promotion activities
to support exports from the renewable energy sector, including those under the GREAT
campaign, further information about which can be found on DIT’s website. Engagement
with UK exporters forms part of the work of DIT’s sector teams – one of which specifically
focuses on renewable energy technologies – as well as our international network of
trade and investment advisors, with renewable energy and clean growth being key themes
of work.</p><p>Last year, for example, DIT worked closely with Taiwan, including by
signing a Memorandum of Understanding between the UK and Taiwan, to open up offshore
wind opportunities for UK companies. The offshore wind sector deal commits DIT and
industry to increase offshore wind exports fivefold to £2.6 billion by 2030.</p><p>DIT
is developing a new UK Export Strategy with one of the key pillars being ‘clean growth’.
Stakeholders will be consulted ahead of its launch later this year.</p>
