Energy Talks & Drinks @ Buccaneer Delft

This event is hosted by Buccaneer Delft.

Rising sea levels. Growing pressure on space. The need for clean energy, resilient infrastructure and sustainable use of our oceans.

Whether you work in energy, maritime, technology, research or policy, one thing is becoming clear:

The biggest challenges of the coming decades will increasingly require innovative solutions on and around water. Blue innovations are creating new opportunities for clean energy, climate adaptation, sustainable infrastructure and future-proof coastal development.

But how do promising ideas become real-world projects? And what is needed to move from demonstration to wider adoption?

During this edition of Energy Talks & Drinks, we will explore how innovative solutions on and around water are shaping the future of energy, maritime infrastructure and coastal development.

Hosted during the vibrant week of Blue Week and ICOE OEE 2026, this Energy Talks & Drinks explores the opportunities and challenges of blue innovation.
