SeaVolt’s first of a kind test platform installed in offshore water

The SeaVolt Consortium is happy to announce that we successfully transported and installed our test installation with great accuracy. It is now in place in the Blue Accelerator test zone located near the Port of Ostend, Belgium.

On the platform, we will perform research and development activities for the offshore solar industry. This great achievement and big milestone is the result of close cooperation between Tractebel, @DEMEgroup, and @Jan De Nul Group, and was achieved with the support of the Belgian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Justice and the North Sea @Vincent Van Quickenborne, and Secretary of State for Science Policy @Thomas Dermine via funding from VLAIO and BELSPO, along with the partners, (sub)contractors and port officials.
