A new project of Maritime Institute LIQUID ENERGY - Liquefied (bio-)gas as a driving force for development and use of green energy technology

altalt

The Department of Environmental Protection
under the Interreg South Baltic Program 2014-2020, participates in EU project called Liquid Energy - Liquefied (bio-) gas as a driving force for development and use of green energy technology. The Maritime Institute of the Gdynia Maritime University is the Lead Partner of the project.

The alternative fuels as independent power supplies are becoming increasingly significant, even if it that means increases in energy costs. These fuels also make a significant contribution to improving environmental performance, such as reducing CO2 and pollution emissions. However, a particular technical challenge associated with the energy transition is the storage and distribution of high volumes of energy, for example in the form of liquid biogas or natural gas. This is the specific technological issue that the Liquid Energy project addresses, jointly developing solutions and creating a platform for a broader and more universal use of (bio-)LNG in a micro/nano form (e.g. in decentralised energy supply system) as an alternative fuel in the future.
The most important goal of the project is a contribution to solving technical problems and popularisation of a decentralized (regional) energy conversion with simultaneous local consumption including transport of alternative fuel. To achieve this goal, the project divided all necessary aspects of its content into:

  • WP3, which is focused on creating a cooperation space necessary for interaction between focal actors accelerating development and use of (bio-) LNG technology, products and services in the micro and nano scale

  • WP4, which is focused on presenting possible application of the (bio-)LNG-based technology to raise awareness about added value of (bio-) LNG related technical solutions and to increase knowledge about their practical contribution to strengthening environmental sustainability and economic innovation of the South Baltic region.

Furthermore, the cooperation of project partners from Poland, Germany and Lithuania allows for joining existing resources, knowledge and relevant actors on cross-border level and significantly contributing to the creation of critical mass and unlocking (especially) business cooperation in this technological area. All of which creates for a way for utilising the untapped potential of (bio-) LNG as an alternative energy source.

Duration: 01.01.2020-31.12.2022

The final conference “The role of regions in fostering blue growth” – Smart Blue Regions Project

alt
On 22nd January 2019 in Berlin the conference “The role of regions in fostering blue growth” took place. It was the final conference of Smart Blue Regions Project. Regions engaged in the project have been at the forefront of Blue Growth across the Baltic Sea area. Whether it is for shipping, blue bio-technology, coastal tourism or aquaculture, regions have developed innovative approaches to enhance Blue Growth. This conference was built upon the results of several transnational projects that all aim to foster blue growth – from regions and for regions in the BSR.
This conference especially focused on paving the way for regional blue growth cooperation; smart specialisation and multi-use as drivers for blue growth; approaches to financing blue growth cooperation and policy measures and support structures for fostering blue growth.

The Multi-Use in European Seas (MUSES) project delivered!

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no 727451

 The MUSES project was a two year Horizon 2020 funded project exploring the opportunities for Multi-Use in European Seas across five sea basins: Baltic Sea, North Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Black Sea, and Eastern Atlantic. For a brief overview of the project and its findings, please visit the website and watch the video: https://muses-project.eu/ 

The core deliverable of the MUSES project is the Action Plan presenting real opportunities for multi-use in European Seas, including the scope for innovation and Blue Growth potential. It highlights where benefits can be realized, draws attention to barriers that can be overcome and provide recommendations on what actions are needed in order to enable this. The Action Plan and its Executive summary is available for downloading https://muses-project.eu/downloads/

Final conference of the MUSES project took place on 10th October 2018 in Brussels, Belgium. It was the opportunity to engage with a wide range of stakeholders from the business community, public administrations, research and academia. Throughtout the number of presentation, pannels and interactive sessions, final conference of the MUSES project offered a platform for all stakeholders who has been engaged during the project, to highlight their particular cases, needs and concerns in further promoting concrete realisation of multi-use projects. 


 

 

The Annual Baltic Sea States Sub-regional Cooperation Conference

The Annual Baltic Sea States Sub-regional Cooperation Conference took place from 10-12 September in Gdansk, Poland. This year, the theme was solidarity, participation and smart action for a better future. Smart Blue Regions project partner "Association Pomorskie in the EU", was the main organiser of the workshop “Smart societies - Blue Growth regions" happening on the 1st day of the conference.

 

CEDA-MIG Joint Symposium on Advances in Dredging Technology 2018

Save date!

CEDA-MIG Joint Symposium on Advances in Dredging Technology 2018


The Symposium will be held on 10th October in Gdansk Science and Technology Park. The Symposium is organised by Central Dredging Association (CEDA) and Maritime Institute in Gdansk supported by Gdansk Science and Technology Park (GSTP), Pomeranian Special Economic Zone and Baltic Port Organisation (BPO). The aim of the event is knowledge exchange between international and local experts on high-interest topics for senior members of the professional dredging community. Whether you represent the industry as a project owner, dredging contractor, consultant, researcher or manufacturer, attending this Symposium will be an invaluable use of your time.

We are in the process of finalising the one-day programme which will:

  • draw on the collective knowledge and experience of CEDA’s Environment Commission and Dredging Management Commission to provide the latest details on their current work including: beneficial use of sediments; energy efficiency of dredging projects, dredging technology developments versus requirements; how to avoid project booby traps; and more;
  • include presentations from local speakers representing MIG, GSTP and BPO and will cover the latest on placing dredged sediment in the Baltic Sea; and an update on GSTP projects;
  • include a site visit to Port of Gdansk and a brainstorming session followed by a Symposium dinner.

You can expect a full day of updates, current thinking and best practice, with plenty of opportunities to network with your fellow senior professionals. The full programme will be available very soon but, in the meantime, put the date in your diary and register your place.

Participation is free of charge
