ICOE, the most important biennial conference in the marine energy sector, took place this year in Cherbourg at the same time as the sector's annual exhibition in France, Seanergy, from 12 to 14 June 2018. More than 1,200 people from all over the world took part in this international event. It gathered the main companies, institutions and cluster associations working in the marine energy sector.
The Basque Energy Cluster had a prominent presence at ICOE-Seanergy 2018, where it presented Basque credentials in the field of wave energy at a shared stand located in the exhibition area. The Wave Energy Basque Country brand, which includes the major Basque companies and bodies in the wave energy sector, was represented at a joint stand shared with four companies and bodies: BiMEP, the EVE's Mutriku plant, Kimua and Zunibal. Other important Basque companies and entities also took part in the fair: Ditrel, Oceantec and Tecnalia.
ICOE-Seanergy 2018 offered more than 30 technical sessions on the side, in which many of the Basque companies attending the event took part. Entities such as BiMEP, EVE and Tecnalia were some of the main speakers on various panels and were even moderators on others. Ditrel, Oceantec and Zunibal also talked about their work.
On the last day of ICOE-Seanergy 2018, Karmenu Vella, European Commissioner for Environment, Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, visited our stand. The EVE and BiMEP made the most of this institutional visit to showcase the capabilities of the Basque companies in the sector, and the testing facilities in the region, like the Mutriku plant and the BiMEP platform.
