General – collaboration
The Net Zero Technology Centre and TNO have today launched a flagship report which analyses the significant opportunity that closer collaboration in the North Sea can bring.
The ‘One North Sea’ report highlights how the North Sea and its existing oil and gas infrastructure offer an ideal basis for developing a Net Zero Emission basin.
It recommends a range of potential opportunities in which collaboration between the oil and gas and renewable sector can accelerate the energy transition.
Cross-border collaboration, alignment and joint planning in the North Sea region is fundamental for a successful energy transition. The report’s publication coincides with the launch of the www.onenorthsea.com database. The publicly available database maps out close to 90 integration projects already underway in the Netherlands, UK and Norway that demonstrate a component of re-use of existing infrastructure.
The project aims to kick-start the development of a Europe-wide database, providing a hub to collaborate and skill-share to help reach net zero energy faster.
