AOFFTECH: Atlantic Offshore Tech

AoffTech’s transnational challenge is to contribute to decarbonisation, mitigate climate change, and enhance the EU’s energy independence through floating offshore wind energy, a strategic technology for the Atlantic Area.

The overall objective is to boost the industry’s value chain and accelerate the deployment of floating offshore wind through public-private collaboration. The main results include connecting and disseminating the technological developments of offshore experimental platforms, a cross-border ESG approach to deployment, the development of a shared strategy for the Atlantic Area on floating offshore wind, and facilitating contact with the network of blue academies.

The project adopts a balanced approach that harmonizes the advancement of technocentric, ecocentric, and anthropocentric perspectives, for which transnational cooperation is required.
