How can flying and underwater drones help to enhance green transition in the North Sea? 🌊 This is a task that we at Port Esbjerg and Esbjerg Airport, among others, have taken on for the benefit of the entire EU. All parties involved in the project just met for the first time in Esbjerg. “It’s incredibly exciting, and we’re looking forward to getting to grips with the issues,” says Susanne Kruse Sørensen, managing director of Esbjerg Airport. She emphasises that the eleven partners are ‘just getting their pencils sharpened’ in this four-year project, for which the EU has granted EUR 7.3 million. The name of the project is DIOL (Develop Innovative Offshore Logistics), and it is based on the Esbjerg Declaration. The goal is to develop a strong international logistics chain to support the EU’s targets of 65GW offshore wind by 2030 and 150GW by 2050, along with 20GW of green hydrogen production by 2030.
