Reliable AC/DC infrastructures @sea

Join us and discover, as a world premiere, the Princess Elisabeth Island, its ambitions and innovations. Throughout our exciting programme you will learn from the experiences of our experts and gain insights into how to design, install and maintain electro-technical infrastructures, to ensure reliable operation in offshore environments.

How to accomplish reliable infrastructures in harsh environments at sea? This technical seminar, organised by Sirris, KBVE-SRBE, Agoria Energy Technology Club and OWI-Lab, will cover the challenges and best practices, with real-life examples

You will have the unique opportunity to discover the Princess Elisabeth Island, a world first in its kind,  the project of this energy island, its ambitions and innovations. As an international power hub connecting countries and offshore wind farms with AC and DC technologies, the energy island will play a vital role in the Belgian energy transition.

The seminar will also present several other expert speakers who will share their experiences and insights on how to design, install and maintain electro-technical infrastructure to ensure reliable operation in harsh environments such as offshore wind turbines.

Among the topics covered:

  • The AC and DC technologies connecting the energy hub
  • The importance of robust design and engineering to withstand extreme conditions for offshore energy assets
  • Strategies for mitigating the effects of extreme conditions
  • Best practices for monitoring, maintaining and servicing equipment in remote or difficult-to-access locations
  • Technologies and innovations at the energy island
