    Webinar: A future-proof resilient North Sea

    On 9 July our partner TNO hosted a webinar on how to realize a resilient and integrated North Sea energy system.

    Missed the webinar? Take a look at the recording.

    This interactive session, hosted by Rene Peters, brought together key players who are actively shaping the future of the North Sea energy system: NSE Science Lead Joris Koornneef, Durgesh Kawale (TNO), Michel Dubbelboer (TenneT), Robert Seehawer (AquaVentus) and Ruben Prins (North Sea Energy Cooperation – NSEC).

    Key takeaway: international cooperation is essential for a reliable and affordable energy system.

  • Aquaventus

    Meet our partner: Aquaventus

    We recently spoke with Robert Seehawer, Managing Director of AquaVentus, one of our partner organisations, about the role of offshore hydrogen in a more integrated North Sea energy system.

    We discussed topics such as large-scale offshore electrolysis, hydrogen pipelines as future infrastructure backbones, flexible electrolysis, market design and the importance of cross-border cooperation.

    NSE event: The North Sea Energy REvolution

    On 25 June 2025, NSE hosted a public event to conclude the 2023-2025 phase of the programme. In the EYE film museum in Amsterdam, NSE presented a visualisation and modelling of energy plans in the North Sea. The unique series of maps and scenarios show just how crucial offshore wind, hydrogen production, CO₂ storage, and the phase-out of natural gas are for the future of the Netherlands and Europe. A first-of-its-kind initiative offering insight and calling for action from the Netherlands and other North Sea countries.

North Sea Energy Atlas

Developed within the NSE program, the interactive online Atlas offers an international, data-driven overview of key sectors in the North Sea area: energy, transport, ecology, fisheries, and defense. It not only shows today’s energy flows, from oil and gas to offshore wind, but also reveals scenario's for 2030, 2035, 2040 and 2050.

Curious how it works? Aravind Satish, one of the Atlas developers, recorded a clear explainer video. Take a look and start exploring the map yourself.

Explainers

Infographics

Turning complex insights into clear stories: in 2025, North Sea Energy developed five engaging infographics that highlight the key findings from our research in 2023-2025. Launched at our concluding event at the EYE Filmmuseum in Amsterdam, these visual explainers make the opportunities and challenges of an integrated North Sea energy system accessible to a wider audience.

Discover the insights and download the infographics.

  • International roadmap explained

    Explore the realistic pathways NSE envisions for Europe's future clean, secure and affordable energy system.

  • Multi Use explained

    With growing demands for food, transport and nature preservation, space in the North Sea is under pressure. By multi-use plannning activities may coexist.

  • Ecology explained

    In multiple stakeholder workshops researchers came to an important conclusion: the need for nature-inclusive designs when developing plans for intergrated offshore energy projects.

  • Hubs and Clusters explained

    Long term visions into step-by-step developments were explored for three energy hubs in the North Sea: West, East, North. The result: spatial blueprints for how these hubs could evolve towards 2050.

  • Integrated approach explained

    In commodity and grid action plans NSE sets out the concrete actions that are needed for Europe to secure it's clean, affordable and reliable future energy system.
