This project is based on the desire to improve the environmental state of the Baltic Sea. We will together with our partners develop solutions for synergies between two growing industries, offshore wind parks and seaweed cultivation. But our ambition goes further than that. The project also includes experimenting with and developing ecosystem restoration services. The vision is that the area for the wind park will become a biodiversity hotspot, with fish spawning around artificial reefs, blue mussels and seaweed around the windmill foundations offering habitats for a number of species, and large-scaled seaweed cultivation that absorbs nutrients and produces a sustainable raw material for a number of industries.
