Blue Maritime Lunch No. 1: "Energy saving and infrastructure"
Seminar We will be hosting three Blue Maritime Lunches at our Blue Innovation Arena to showcase the maritime projects that we and our partners are involved in.
We collaborate with our cluster companies to conduct and finance studies. This involves participation in numerous national and European-funded research and innovation projects, ranging from smaller regional projects to multi-million European Projects. Our primary objective is to enhance the competence and competitiveness of our cluster companies by introducing new networks and knowledge.
Our dedicated EU advisor and business developers provide unique skills into projects. We also offer state-of-the-art Business Process Management workshops in our Blue Innovation Arena.
Stay up to date on our projects by following our channels and joining our upcoming Blue Maritime Lunch series.
Blue Maritime Lunch No1:
"Energy saving and infrastructure"
GCE Blue Maritime Cluster - An introduction to prestudies and innovation projects in the maritime cluster
SINTEF Ålesund – Mapping of main Energy Consumers in vessels.
SINTEF Ålesund has conducted a pre-study to identify the main energy consumption of vessels in the cluster.
NTNU – Refuel
We launched a research project in 2023 with NTNU and eight other industrial collaborators. The project has a budget frame of 12 MNOK and aims to understand the design of the national maritime infrastructure required to accommodate the new types of fuels and increased electrification.
Kystverket - MarU
In 2023, the Norwegian Coastal Administration developed the AIS-based emission model MarU (Maritime Emissions), which can estimate emissions from maritime traffic to air and sea. The first run of MarU provided new calculated emission figures for greenhouse gases and air pollution from vessels in Norwegian coastal and ocean areas in 2022 and 2023. Thanks to a new ship traffic model, emissions are allocated to individual voyages for domestic and international shipping.
