ACCELERATING ENERGY SYSTEM CHANGE IN NORTH WEST EUROPE

Europe wants to be climate neutral in 2050. Tackling challenges with the availability and affordability of green energy, as well as creating a stable and reliable energy system in 2050, does not stop at our country borders.

Approaching solutions in joint cross border approach can be a route to guarantee the supply of affordable clean energy. The North Sea will be the future powerhouse for renewable energy for Northwest Europe and will also connect energy markets. Together countries in Northwest Europe have the assets, knowledge and people to change the system and take the lead, in particular in offshore energy. It will take broadening our scope beyond national and sectoral borders, combining assets and connecting infrastructure to accelerate towards a clean and reliable energy system.

At this event we will look at a wide variety of collaborations that have been initiated in North Sea countries. For example, the role of ports as energy hubs for northwest Europe require further intensification of mutual cooperation and cross border energy infrastructure. The realisation of an international hydrogen backbone connecting the ports, industry clusters in Northwest Europe, ensuring green hydrogen will make its way into Europe. And an integration of the use of the North Sea in the future energy system for offshore wind and hydrogen production and CO2 storage will be essential to achieve the climate goals.
