North Sea has gigantic potential

The North Sea is to play a crucial role in the energy transition facing North-West Europe. If public authorities and businesses work together closely, between € 100 billion and € 200 billion can be created for society in this transition from fossil fuels to green energy. This is revealed in the report ‘The North Sea opportunity’ of the World Energy Council Netherlands (WEC), which was presented June 15th in Brussels to Christopher Jones, Deputy Director in the Energy Directorate-General of the European Commission.

On behalf of WEC Netherlands, its members DNVGL, ECN, EBN, PwC, Shell, Siemens, TNO, Rabobank and TenneT contributed to the report.
