Offshore4sure

The objective of the Offshore for Sure project is to accelerate the regional energy transition and stimulate the sustainable blue economy in close cooperation between Belgian and Dutch technology developers, service providers, civil society organizations and knowledge institutions.

Five developers of innovative offshore renewable energy solutions (tidal, wave, offshore floating solar and offshore energy storage) are joining forces with a clear plan for roll-out. During the project, testing and certification services will be developed around these innovations, which can also be used for other technology developers beyond the project.

Role of Howest

Cybersecurity audits of the 5 use cases and information session on cybersecurity for the Blue economy sector. The knowledge gained in the project is immediately valorised in the form of recommendations for legislation and regulations, improved standards and the development of content for training and education in a sustainable partnership between education partners in Flanders and Zeeland (the Netherlands). Thanks to validated business cases (for ports, integration in dams, autonomous applications and integration in wind farms), we expect to attract new investments in the developed technologies, from governments, private investors and citizen cooperatives.
