Dutch Marine Energy Centre

Marine energy provides a vast potential for supply contractors, offshore energy companies, utility operators as well as remote applications.

For the majority of applications, the energy generated from waves, tidal streams or different levels of either salinity or temperature is complementary to other offshore energy sources.

Moreover, additional benefits range from being predictable well in advance to being always available providing a constant power supply to offshore equipment offers collaboration opportunities with the oil & gas industries. The production of offshore hydrogen transforms renewable energy into a green energy carrier that can be used for chemical industry, as a fuel or stored and converted back into electricity. And finally, the co-location with offshore wind can not only increase the amount of energy harvested from marine space but also increase the capacity factor of cables and subsequently the base load of offshore renewable energy parks.

To realise solutions for all these applications, Dutch Marine Energy Centre (DMEC) is accelerating marine energy development in Europe and beyond. Our activities are focussing on managing technical innovation challenges, maturing investment readiness, exploring new markets and securing policy support. To offer broad expertise, our team collaborates with a large network of research institutes, test sites and engineering consultancies. In addition, we assist corporates in understanding the strategic position marine energy can have in their business, gain access to the key public and private actors in the sector and become a key player in the market. All these activities are bundled together in our Corporate Partnership Program.
