Leading the Global Marine Energy Community

As the voice of the global marine energy industry, IBIA brings together stakeholders across the value chain to promote collaboration, share knowledge, and support the industry’s continued development and transition.

The association is led by an elected Board and Executive Committee, with the day-to-day work delivered by a dedicated Secretariat. The Secretariat supports members through industry engagement, events, training programmes, advocacy and regulatory initiatives.
