Project description
Marine energy for a greener future
Achieving climate neutrality and safeguarding coastal environments are central to the EU’s climate goals. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the SeaDream project will advance the sustainable use of marine energy. At its core, SeaDream is developing a high-resolution water quality data service for monitoring and modelling at sea. This service is essential for understanding the impact of renewable energy generation and storage on marine environments. The project unites academic and industry experts across the EU, fostering collaboration through workshops and training programmes. With active involvement from diverse stakeholders, SeaDream’s innovations are aimed at improving marine energy practices while promoting career growth in green energy research, ultimately contributing to the EU’s climate goals.
Objective
The project aims to strengthen EU efforts towards achieving climate neutrality and achieving green energy and environmental targets. SeaDream plays a crucial role in making sure marine energy is utilized sustainably and coastal environments are preserved in line with EU policies.
The development of a high-resolution water quality data service at sea is at the core of SeaDream's mission. Data such as these are crucial to addressing specific questions regarding maritime renewable energy generation and storage. The project integrates local monitoring data and advanced modeling through the development, testing, and demonstration of novel downstream information services in an operational mode. As a result of this integration, marine activities related to the generation and storage of energy are improved, and environmental objectives are not compromised. By harnessing advanced data and fostering collaboration across sectors, the project aims to contribute significantly to the EU's environmental and energy targets, promoting a path towards climate neutrality.
In order to achieve SeaDream's vision, a coordinated research program that thrives on collaboration is implemented. In this program, leading teams from academic and private sectors are seconded within and outside the EU. Collaborations are enhanced by periodic workshops and summer schools that disseminate the latest findings and promote market-relevant knowledge application.
It is designed to foster the advancement of knowledge and career development for both experienced and early career researchers and professionals. To ensure this, secondments and training activities are structured to ensure a comprehensive approach to learning and development. Additionally, the SeaDream consortium includes nonacademic partners from various stakeholder groups, which facilitates direct application of project results.
