MaRINET2 – Providing support for offshore renewable energy developers
MaRINET2, the Marine Renewables Infrastructure Network, is composed of 39 organisations who collaborate to progress offshore renewable energy technologies in Europe. It aims to accelerate the development of wave, tidal and offshore wind energy technologies and infrastructure by opening up access to 57 test facilities across 13 European countries.
The project is now in its second iteration, and it is supported by the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme. The first MaRINET2 call provided €1.3m in funding for 48 R&D projects. This will provide 95 weeks of testing free-of-charge at the MaRINET2’s network of facilities. The second call for proposals opened on 15 January 2018 and is open to the end of February. To find out if you’re eligible for support, contact us directly: Michael Leer-Andersen, Project Manager SSPA, email mla@sspa.se or call +46 31 772 90 49

To facilitate research test infrastructures for actors in offshore renewable energy
The MaRINET2 program has recently been launched and SSPA is a partner. The aim of the project is to facilitate research test infrastructures for actors in offshore renewable energy, free of charge. The European Commission Horizon 2020 program supports and finances the project that runs from 2017 to 2021.
Energy from the ocean – predictable, reliable, renewable
Prototypes are entering the market but cost efficiency is still a challenge. SSPA is acting as a research partner to develop ocean energy systems further. The project development involves the use of SSPA’s testing facilities as well as computation and modelling methods.
