  1. Towardsan modern and integrated offshore electricityinfrastucture

  2. “Europe, we have a problem”

  3. Increasingpricedifferencesbetweencountries Energy prices in Europefarhigherthan US (shale gas) and Asia (coal) • slow killer of ourindustry, bancrupcyoremigratingindustry (Aldel Groningen, Dow Chemical) • slowing down economicgrowth • unemployment and negativesocialeconomiceffects

  4. Leading to • Dumping: electricity for free • A climate that dis-stimulates investments in production capacity

  5. Unbalancebetweenproductionanddemand • No easy fix. Futuresolutions: power to gas and electricitystorage • Currentsolution: more interconnectioncapacitybetweencountries (we cannot store enoughelectricity) • We need a new and modern electricityinfrastructure A growingurgency at European level to solve these problems

  6. Huge interconnectors – connecting countries

  7. EU: Projects of Common Interest

  8. Our mission: Synergies at Sea

  9. Connecting offshore wind withinterconnection We believe: • This will lead to a decrease of the cost of energy • And a significant cost reduction of offshore wind With the right approach!

  10. The North Sea in 2020

  11. Consortium Synergies at Sea • A group of highlymotivatedcompanies and institutes • Contributingwithowninvestments • Looking at the different parts of the system • We aim to offer solutions, notjustrecommendations

  12. A new and modern energyinfrastructure (1) • Feasibility (technical, regulatory, business case) • Technical design • The role of the law • Ownership

  13. A new and modern energyinfrastructure (2) • Capacity of the cables (distribution and trading) • Financing • Embeddinginsecurities – realoptionsmethod • DistributedTemperatureSensing • Value Engineering

  14. Progress and results • Project has started in 2013 and now at full steam • First resultsexpectedmid 2014 • Consultation (TSO’s, Pension Funds, Utilities) • Dessimination of intermediateresults at conferences • Finalresults 2016
