The objective of this proposal is to create a European Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Joint Cluster Initiative, called ELBE EUROCLUSTER, that will intensify collaboration across seven key EU regions in this field. This partnership, which is built on the existing ELBE Alliance, will develop and implement supporting measures for SMEs with a view to improve the resilience of the European renewable energy industrial ecosystem (with a focus on the offshore alternative), and boost its green and digital transformation.
