ITEG
Development and validation of an integrated solution for tidal energy and hydrogen production in Orkney.
Goal
ITEG is developing and validating an integrated tidal energy and hydrogen production solution for clean energy generation, which will be demonstrated in Orkney. The project focuses on energy-related carbon emissions in Northwest Europe and will address grid constraints in remote communities.
Description
The project focuses on energy-related carbon emissions in Northwest Europe and will address grid limitations in remote communities by using three low-carbon technologies: tidal turbines, electrolyzers, and energy management systems. Pre-commercial demonstration costs for ocean energy are high, and investors are reluctant to invest until the technology has been proven at scale in the sea. ITEG aims to reduce these costs by developing an integrated solution for hydrogen production.
Our role
We contribute our expertise in the European green energy and energy storage sectors to advise on project replicability. We are involved in various green energy projects in Northwest Europe and provide access to networks of public and private parties.
Partners
The ITEG consortium consists of 9 partners from France, Belgium, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. In addition to New Energy Coalition, Agence de Développement pour la Normandie, Orbital Marine Power, Université de Caen Normandie, Université le Havre Normandie, Ghent University, Energy Systems Catapult, Elogen en Smart Hydrogen Consulting are participating in this project.
