About this project
<p>Marine technologies intend to capture the energy from waves, tides and the heat stored in the water. They offer huge potential and represent a relatively young category of renewables. Among all the Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) technologies, offshore wind energy, stream (in the straits), waves and Sea Water Air Cooling Conditioning (SWAC) are of utmost interest for the Mediterranean, although they are at different maturity stages according to technologies. Offshore wind energy is by far, the primary energy for the supply of electricity injected into the Mediterranean networks. Therefore, it is important to consider the latest technological aspects of this field. The project aims to enhance Greek businesses’ competetiveness in the Blue Energy and Marine Renewable Energy sectors, build their capacity and take advantage of future opportunities in relation to EU Green Deal and the Greek National Strategy on renewables. </p> <p>The project will be implemented by 3 Greek companies (SYNERGASIA, ENERGEIN, and Kinno), that will organise 3 training seminars on Blue and Marine Energy Development, including 3 study visits to good practice projects, procure a pre-feasibility study for the development of offshore wind farms in Greece, create an online "Living Lab" on Blue Energy Growth, and analytical Business Guidebooks for the activation of organised marketplaces through Blue Energy. In the current project, the three companies will collaborate to increase their competences in the Blue Energy sector, with ENERGEIN providing the insights and link to the wholesale electricity market and Kinno being the outwards facing partner and acting as the link with expertise outside Greece. The project will also involve a Norwegian subcontractor, who will assist in the project activities by providing the Norwegian context as well as insights. </p>
