Powering sustainable aquaculture with marine energy.
With the ability to produce high-quality protein without the need for land, freshwater, or fertilizer, aquaculture is of paramount importance in our food supply. To become sustainable in the near future, aquaculture could be powered by marine renewable energy. Together with Hatch, DMEC organises the online event ‘Powering Sustainable Aquaculture with Marine Energy’ on February 15th.
Towards a sustainable future by linking aquaculture and marine energy
In this event, aquaculture companies and marine energy developers will explore opportunities for powering aquaculture with marine energy. Six marine energy technology developers, including ENCORE project partners Oceans of Energy and Teamwork Technology, will pitch their solutions and application for aquaculture in a rapid-fire session. Leading companies from the aquaculture sector will be in the room to join the discussion and draw a plan forward. The outcome of the event will be summarised in a report supported by ENCORE describing challenges and opportunities for both sectors.
