Brief overview FMC (Flanders Maritime Cluster) is the network organization of the marine and maritime industry in Flanders. We facilitate the Flemish maritime industry by actively promoting the skills and capabilities
- f
- ur
members, stimulating collaboration and promoting internationalization.
- On the basis of an estimate, the Blue Economy for Flanders represents between 5 to 10%
- f total value added. Traditional strong sectors include coastal tourism, maritime
transport and water construction works. Our world leading dredging companies DEME and Jan De Nul have successfully diversified into offshore wind.
- Blue energy is at an early stage of development, but the long-term potential is significant,
moreover since Flanders can rely on extensive experience in offshore wind since it was a pioneer in the development of offshore wind farms in the North Sea. The port of Ostend is the hub from where the parks are installed and maintained.
- Flanders offers a variety of dedicated test infrastructures for blue energy, like the climate
chamber of OWI-Lab in Antwerp, the sea based testbed close to the port of Ostend, and the new Coastal and Ocean Basin located at the GreenBridge science park in Ostend. Contact information:

Brief overview OffshoreVäst is a cooperation project which started in 2013 and can be seen as a platform for interaction and innovation. OV brings together some of Sweden’s best in the offshore sector with the goal of developing together. By drawing upon the strong industry of Sweden, OV is developing an internationally recognized offshore industry in the Swedish west coast area.
- OV faces the challenge to exploit the sustainable power sources of wind and wave energy,
while coping with the enormous forces that the installations are exposed to in the offshore environment.
- OV offers to their members several services divided in four main strategic areas: research
and business development for the industry and innovators, SME support developing case- studies focused on industry dynamics, knowledge acquired by 3rd party investigators and references and coordination of testbeds.
- OV is involved in the development of the Test Site Skagerrak, four projected facilities in the
west coast of Sweden that has been up and running since 2004. This open sea test site, joining forces with SSPA, which offers facilities for hydrodynamic initial testing, will complete the offer of Sweden in to test Blue Energy products.

Brief overview OEDK is the cluster organization and innovation network for the Danish Offshore Industry. This cluster strengthens synergy between offshore wind, oil and gas and facilitates strategic cooperation on innovation. Cost Reduction & Innovation Forum (CRIF) is the common name for projects that will help reduce costs in the offshore industry. These projects are run and
- rganized by OEDK.
- Nowadays, the Danish offshore industry is shifting to a more renewable paradigm. The
synergy between Oil&Gas sector and offshore renewable energy is clear and the Danish industry offshore industry, which employs around 28,000 people, is ready for this change.
- The Danish Wave industry goes back more then 30 years. The first Danish Wave Energy
Converter was tested offshore Denmark in 1985. The industry is united in the Danish Partnership for Wave Power and work as a Technology Collaboration on Wave Energy Conversion.
- The port of Esbjerg (West Denmark) is one of the main ports to supply offshore wind
turbines to the North Sea. Several installations are being deployed in Denmark related to the Blue Energy sector, like the Hanstholm Test Site, where DanWEC is located.
