The FORESEA project aims to help bring ocean energy technologies to market by providing access to northwestern Europe’s world-leading network of test centres.
Access to test sites will be provided through a programme of competitive calls, run by the project’s consortium. The programme covers the following test centres:
• European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC): Orkney Islands, UK
• SmartBay: Galway, Ireland
• SEM-REV: Nantes, France
• Tidal Testing Centre: Den Oever, Netherlands
Ocean Energy Europe will provide support to the test centres for project implementation.
Projects on the offshore test site:
Ideol: FLOATGEN
- the impact of the floating wind turbine and its mooring system on the environment
- the quality and quantity of electricity produced by the wind turbine
- system performance
- exploitation and maintenance costs
