Offshore wind energy will be a very important sustainable source of energy worldwide in our future energy system. The demand for hydrogen is coming, it will increase immensely if we can successfully convert renewable energy to hydrogen. This meaning we have to aim high. Let’s discuss key issues like system integration, flexibility, certification, Fit for 55 and the need for partnerships.

Erik Mobach, Project Director NortH2, Shell - Pim Reuderink , Energy Innovation Director Nordics & Benelux, Bureau Veritas and Ruben Dijkstra, Director Offshore Wind, Eneco will discus the beforementioned in the form of a presentation followed up by a panel discussion.

As an increasing number of offshore oil and gas infrastructures and facilities are nearing the end of their economic operation, we must find a new use for platforms and pipelines. Through the use of decommissioning and reusage of existing infrastructures, we will be able to implement change more rapidly and kickstart green initiatives. Jacqueline Vaessen, General Manager at Nexstep will share her insights and lessons at Offshore Industry!

With TU Delft's project 'Hydro Motion' the school hopes to take the next big step towards a sustainable future and a green maritime industry. With the use of hydrogen, they aim to complete the circle of green energy and build towards a more sustainable future.

By building on the work of the previous 13 teams and 12 boats, TU Delft keeps on innovating and improving ways to use clean energy. The Solar Boat Team will be present at Offshore Industry, including their award winning hydrogen boat.

Stimulating biodiversity at your offshore installations making the offshore industry more nature-inclusive. The start-up ReefSystems has multiple successful pilots in 3 continents. One of the founders, Max Dijkstra , will pitch the possibilities and obstacles that stand between our current status and a sustainable and productive use of the North Sea.

The oceans are key to solving global energy challenges. The potential of the oceans is still huge. SBM Offshore is investing in multiple floating solutions in order to make use of this potential like FLNG, wave energy and floating wind. Stein Rasmussen, Chief Strategy Officer, SBM Offshore will tell us all about his vision and lessons learned.

Tradional fuel, green energy and infrastructure. how can we modernize existing pipelines and platforms in order to create a hydrogen pathway? The North Sea allows us to develop more rapid compared to other countries, but how can we become the hydrogen backbone of Europe? And what will he North Sea look like in 2050? Erik Hiensch, Director O&M Offshore, Vattenfall, Maurits den Broeder Managing Director Van Oord Offshore & Member of the Executive Committee and Dick Lagerweij, Project Director Hollandse Kust Noord & West Alpha bij TenneT will tell us all about the vision for 2050 and how non-sustainable energy suppliers will transition into sustainable and green energy suppliers.
