BT Projects exists to further renewable energy innovation. We work with technology developers, site owners and financial parties to develop solid business cases that support innovative ocean energy and other renewables technologies. These can be energy production schemes or demonstration setups. And while most are in Europe, the concepts can be applied anywhere in the world where similar conditions are found.

Offshore tidal energy

The world’s seas and oceans offer the potential to generate a vast amount of energy. Current projects focus on placing free-stream turbines in high speed tidal races, mainly between two nearby shores. Examples can be found on the Atlantic coastline of the UK, France and Canada. The difficult conditions in which offshore projects operate …

Blue Barriers

A Blue Barrier combines the technology of a storm surge barrier with that of a tidal array. Energy-wise, the civil structure of a Blue Barrier channels the water to the turbines and ensures the full use of the available tidal flows. Alongside conventional, river-based hydropower and free-stream offshore tidal energy, the Blue Barrier is a third type of hydrokinetic energy system.

River energy

River energy is the oldest and most prevalent renewable energy and takes the form of river dams and traditional and modern watermills. But these conventional systems have a negative ecological impact: the ‘fish friendliness’ of the turbines does not meet present-day requirements, while the environmental impact caused by reservoirs upstream and dry areas downstream is also now considered too high.

Technology test centers

The market for ocean energy is developing rapidly, which is in turn creating a global demand for facilities to test these technologies under real-life conditions. Despite this growing interest, we haven’t yet reached the tipping point at which the major test institutes are prepared to invest in this still-to-be-proven market.

Solar energy innovation

Photovoltaic or PV solar energy is being increasingly rolled out at scale, with the number of projects in the Netherlands growing almost daily. They range from small, household-level projects to larger ones involving some form of co-operative model, and the current Dutch tax regime ensures PV technology can already be made profitable.

New wind energy concepts

Current wind energy technologies are proven and commercially competitive with fossil-based energy systems. One downside is the perceived unsightliness of land and near-shore wind farms, and the resistance this stirs up among local communities. BT Projects respects these feelings and we are eager to create and support solutions that are acceptable to everyone, whether based on new or proven technologies.

The market for tidal and wave energy solutions has grown significantly the last few years. Increasingly efficient turbines and mills are being deployed in pilot projects in more and more ambitious configurations. Not surprisingly: tidal and wave energy is a highly effective and efficient means of producing sustainable renewable energy.
