Euronews OCEAN Season 7, Episode 8 - Offshore greenhouses
Offshore wind farms already power millions of homes — but what if they could also grow seaweed? In Europe, this vision is becoming reality. In this episode of Ocean, we visit the world’s first commercial-scale seaweed farm inside an offshore wind park — Hollandse Kust Zuid, 18 km off the Dutch coast. We also travel to Kiel, where researchers and students are designing the future of offshore seaweed cultivation in the EU-funded project ULTFARMS.
