Deep Dive: Specialised Markets for Ocean Energy – Turning Needs into Opportunities

Offshore renewable energy has potential far beyond conventional grid supply. Unlocking this potential requires a deeper understanding of the specialised markets where ocean energy can address specific energy challenges.

From islands and remote communities to offshore platform electrification and offshore data centres, these markets have unique needs, requirements and barriers. Wave and tidal energy could play an important role in developing solutions tailored to these environments.

In this evening session, experts representing different specialised markets will explore their energy needs, bottlenecks, opportunities and requirements, and discuss what it will take for ocean energy technologies to meet them.
