Result description
DMEC’s multiORE tool is a programme that simulates offshore multi-source renewable energy parks. It can be used to assess how, at a park level, the combination of different offshore renewable energy sources effects the energy output and the use of technical infrastructure. It can further calculate business cases and provide insights into financial KPIs of multi-source offshore energy projects. Furthermore, the tool can be used to optimise the layout of offshore multi-source parks including the intra-array cabling routes, depending on the anchoring, mooring, and electrical integration.
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
- To raise awareness and possibly influence policy
- Other type of Investment
Project developers. Utility firms and policy makers who want to apply the model.
- International Organisations (ex. OECD, FAO, UN, etc.)
- Private Investors
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
The tool is ready to be applied even though further developments are happening until end of the project. Currently no investment is needed, but additional launching customers are looked out for.
If multi-source parks become a scalable market the tool DMEC developed in EU-SCORES can be easily scaled to several different sea basins.
The model was run on several offshore parks and a scientific peer reviewed paper was published on it in 2024.
The tool would be useful for as long as there are multi-source parks beeing developed. The business plans sustainability is dependent on the development of the offshore renewable energy sector.
