HybridLabs helps accelerate the deployment of offshore renewable technologies for both electricity and hydrogen production, hence addressing the energy transition needs whilst also strengthening the offshore food and ecological transitions. It also positions the Dutch knowledge and innovation chain strategically in the Irish Atlantic Coast, which represents a premier opportunity for floating wind energy. HybridLabs’ backbone is a unique nation-wide infrastructure of hybrid experimental facilities, simulators, and offshore demonstration sites, learning from one another, through new data- and physics- driven approaches. Knowledge exploitaKon is achieved across a range of societal partners, including industry, policy makers, NGOs, and citizens.
