The Flemish government approves innovation and development platform off the coast of Ostend.

The Flemish Government approves the co-financing of the EFRO project 1040 - 'Blue Accelerator' to POM West-Vlaanderen in the framework of the EFRO Flanders 2014-2020 programme. The Blue Accelerator project concerns a maritime innovation and development platform that will act as a 'living lab' off the coast of Ostend, by performing tests in real-life sea conditions in the context of Blue Energy (offshore wind energy and wave and tidal energy) and the wider blue economy.

VLIZ is involved as scientific partner within the Blue Accelerator project.
