Abstract
The paper will present the activities and results of a transnational programme of European territorial cooperation (MED Programme) financed by the European Union. The BLUENE project aims to map key actors, existing initiatives and define guidelines related to Blue energy in Mediterranean Sea.
“Blue energy” is not only offshore wind power generation, which has started to expand rapidly in Europe, but also other offshore renewable energy technologies (tidal barrages, wave energy converters, etc.), which are still at an early stage of development, but are growing rapidly. The project involves 4 partners from
Italy, Spain, Croatia, Greece that act at MED level, starting from their own countries and enlarging the investigation field to the other MED countries and regions by involving also some key associated partners (from other MED countries and from all over Europe) in the scientific board.
