Energizing Coastal Regions with Offshore Renewable Energy

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG V-A France - Belgium - The Netherlands - United Kingdom (Les Deux Mers / Two seas / Twee Zeeën)

Date of latest update: 2024-12-17

Description

Description (EN):

The objective is to advance five offshore renewable energy technologies (2 wave energy convertors, 2 water current turbines and 1 offshore floating solar) in a structured and collaborative process and to develop open-source tools & services to facilitate the accelerated commercialization of offshore energy solutions for islands, harbors, estuaries and offshore structures with a focus on 2SEAS region and export.

Achievements (EN):

In 2020 the project made a start on both the technical and business-related deliverables in order to advance 4 Offshore Renewable Energy solutions. The Service Delivery Plans for each TD set our scope of support offered by the SPs and the resource allocations. Two Technology Qualification workshops were held to identify failure modes and effects and to recommend areas for modeling or scale testing. TDs prepared their Basis of Design and Engineering drawings to be reviewed by BV and IMP. Also, TDs produced a Project Development strategy outlining permitting, engineering and certification activities in order to deliver the prototype projects. Below the progress per developer is given: W2E: The site investigations, CFD- and strength analysis are completed. There is a sound basis to select sub-contractors for the outsourcing of blades, vertical central axis, support frame, frame lifting device and bearing houses, safety provisions, water entrance guide. Fabrication will start end of Q1 2021 for assembly in Q2. Electric Power Conversion and load measuring under development. Agreements and permits for use of by-pass channel of the locks in Vlissingen nearly completed TT: The development of the Symphony Wave Power is proceeding well. Small improvements are made on the turbine in preparation for the assembly for the dry test. The main components are being engineered, the first order for production has been initiated. A review of the system specification is being executed to ensure consistency with system behavior numerical modeling and to implement compliance to regulations. For the demo location, an open test site has been secured. Also, an indoor option is being pursued. OOE: Oceans of Energy successfully installed the first modules of the world's first offshore floating solar farm system in the Dutch North Sea. In 2020, several deployments have been realized, at two pilot sites, in which the system has been expanded from 10 kW to 50 kW. Units are updated continuously and are being transported from site 1 to site 2 (which is 15km offshore). The system has survived storms such as Ciara & Dennis at site 1 and additionally Bella at site 2. EEL: EEL continued the operation and testing of a scaled prototype, advanced on approval for the full-scale prototype to be installed in a cooling water channel of the GRavaline Nuclear Power station in North of France. Awaiting completion of engineering activities, review by BV, and design input from IMP.

Delivered Outputs (EN):

The main outputs of the ENCORE project are: ● 4 SMEs benefitting from collaboration with Service Providers (SPs) to develop 4 next-generation prototypes of advanced innovations of integrated Offshore Renewables Energy solutions for island, estuaries, offshore wind parks and platforms. Each SME directly benefits in terms of technology readiness (from TRL 3 - 7) and commercial readiness resulting in an expected €100 mln capital raising and identification of 10 new deployment opportunities. Services to support the 4 SMEs have been developed and provided by engineering consultancies and Test Laboratories (TLs). These SPs benefitted from market uptake and 30 new SMEs are expected to be supported by the SPs in 3 years after the project closure; ● a Route-to-market strategy for ORE solutions in the 2 Seas area and beyond (international export). This output captures all learnings from the business plans, robust certification, educational tools and stakeholder engagement to create long-term impact. The output is expected to provide a clear and usable Route-to-market thus ensuring growth & jobs and giving authorities data to underpin policy development.
