Arjen Kapteijns, Deputy Mayor of the Hague, will welcome OEE2023 attendees before we have a drink in the Exhibition hall to wind down and network after a busy first day.
In this side event, the latest insights will be shared on multi-use at the North Sea. As one of the busiest seas in the world, making efficient use of space is crucial to balance its various stakeholder needs. The solution is to combine renewable energy sources such as wind, wave and solar with multi-use innovations in multi-source offshore energy parks.
Join Dutch Marine Energy Centre (DMEC) and Campus@Sea to:
– hear all about combining renewables energy sources in offshore energy parks and the EU-SCORES project;
– discover how European offshore test site Campus@Sea in Scheveningen accelerates solutions for multi-use;
– discuss how we can accelerate the adoption and reduce the time to market of nature-inclusive, insurable and bankable multi-use innovations at sea together.
