Multi-use at the North Sea

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.

Site Visit

Sign up for this bus tour with the Dutch Energy From Water Association (EWA) to visit the facilities of prominent players in the Dutch ocean energy sector, including Symphony Wave Power, Slow Mill Wave Energy, RED-stack (Salinity Gradient) , and Fishflow Innovations (tidal turbines).

Starting from the conference venue, Amare, this excursion offers a unique opportunity for networking while enjoying the picturesque Dutch countryside.

Limited places available.

Agenda

Wave to Energy and Water (W2EW) Project Side Event

The joint vision of the Wave to Energy and Water consortium is to deliver a world-beating wave powered technology solution – W2EW. It relies on the innovative integration of wave energy and sea water desalination technologies, to produce zero-emission electricity and fresh water, with dynamic optimisation of energy production and maximising the available wave energy using fresh water as storage.

The consortium partners will share the results of the project and announce next steps to mature and commercialise the solution.

EuropeWave: On the path to commercialisation

EuropeWave is an innovative R&D programme for wave energy technology, combining almost €20 million of national, regional and EU funding to drive a competitive Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) programme. The first two phases of the EuropeWave PCP programme have been successfully completed. The next phase – the final phase – Phase 3 will focus on developing the scaled prototypes and testing them in a real operational environment in Scotland or the Basque Country.

This side event will feature the three projects selected to enter the final phase of the programme. These successful developers will showcase their project work, lessons learnt during Phase 2, and highlight their milestones to achieve in order to bring the innovative technologies closer to the commercial stage.

ETIP Ocean Side Event

ETIP Ocean has started the work to update the Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda (SRIA) for ocean energy. The SRIA outlines the priority research, development and innovation challenges to encourage the commercialisation of ocean energy technologies. It provides guidance to EU and national funders by presenting concrete research and innovation actions that will allow ocean energy to meet its SET Plan targets.

 

Over the past months, the ETIP Ocean Technology Working Group has helped prioritise the research, development and innovation topics that will accelerate the development of ocean energy the most in the coming years. This side event will present the work done so far and gather input from the participants with a view to publishing an updated edition of the SRIA in 2024.
