Collaborating with the offshore sector, NGOs, government, and researchers to strengthen North Sea marine life.

Strengthening nature through sustainable energy
WE CONNECT
WE INSPIRE
Driving change internationally through knowledge-sharing and motivating others to join our efforts.
WE TAKE ACTION
Learning by doing for long-term impact. We use hands-on research and monitoring to find real solutions for nature restoration.

Our international impact
Our impact goes beyond Dutch waters. We work with partners across the North Sea and beyond to develop methods for strengthening marine ecosystems. Our findings are shared in the Toolbox: a practical resource for anyone working on marine nature enhancement projects, filled with real-world knowledge from across the globe.
By collaborating across borders, we can speed up progress toward the global recovery of our oceans.
Our impact
Five offshore wind farms
We’re collaborating with wind energy companies like Vattenfall and Eneco to strengthen ecosystems in offshore wind farms. Marine life is already making a comeback, proving we’re on the right track toward a healthier, more vibrant North Sea.

Healthy flat oysters
Oysters are heroes of the underwater world: they build reefs, filter water, recycle nutrients, store carbon, and attract other marine species. Through our oyster cultivation line, we have successfully bred parasite-free flat oysters. Thousands of these oysters have been released into the sea and are closely monitored to assess their reproduction and the formation of new oyster reefs.

The Toolbox
Knowledge-sharing is essential to accelerate large-scale action. That’s why we developed the Toolbox, an interactive platform filled with hands-on insights and lessons learned about nature-enhancing measures at sea. There you can learn all about marine nature enhancements, discover real projects, and get practical steps to start your own nature enhancement project.
