Cutting maintenance costs for offshore wind farms using improved forecasts
Hard winds, strong currents or high waves. Maintenance vessels for offshore wind farms often have to stay in port, or return to shore, when bad weather suddenly blows in. The resulting costs for the dozens of offshore wind farms in the North Sea are high. Operations and maintenance costs account for almost one third of the kWh price of offshore… Energy transition -
GO-FRESH: Geohydrological Opportunities FRESH water supply
In the SW delta of the Netherlands, the agricultural sector is confronted with growing impacts of water shortage and salinization. Farmers and government are aware of the negative influence on the development of the agricultural sector. A reliable freshwater supply is considered as one of the key issues for future development and sustainable… Water supply -
Morphological studies for Al Faw port
Iraq wants to build a modern port as part of its long-term commitment to transforming Iraq into a transportation corridor between the Middle East and Europe. This will be the Al Faw Grand Port, which will be situated in a tide-dominated, muddy environment with complex sediment dynamics. Deltares studied the impact of the port on the surrounding… -
East African Great Lakes Observatory network (EAGLOnet)
Deltares participates in this € 350k programme led by University of Nairobi. Focus is on developing tools to support national, regional and international efforts to sustainably and adaptively manage the ecosystem services provided by the African Lakes for the benefit of the populations in Burundi, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi, Rwanda, DR Congo… -
Global Storm Surge Information System (GLOSSIS)
Coastal inundation by storm surges is one of the main risks for coastal cities worldwide. These risks are expected to further increase in the next few decades due to population growth, sea level rise and land subsidence. To assist worldwide early warning, the Global Storm Surge Forecasting and Information System (GLOSSIS) is developed, which… Floods -
The Water Framework Directive Explorer
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) is one of the most important policy directives in Europe for the improvement of water quality and ecology. Water management authorities such as ministries and regional water authorities must propose measures to improve the ecological status of water bodies and evaluate which measures will be the most effective.… Health water, soil -
Deltaplan Bangladesh
The Bangladesh delta has more than 50 rivers and a vulnerable coastal area, and it is susceptible to flooding. Furthermore, the country faces major water-quality problems. It is going through a period of rapid economic growth, making a long-term vision for water management increasingly urgent. Deltares teamed up with Bangladeshi colleagues and… -
Deltaprogramme and the Adaptive Delta Management approach
The Netherlands is the best protected delta in the world. But how can we ensure that we remain protected from high water, and that our supply of freshwater is secure? The Delta Programme is aimed at maintaining the Netherlands as a safe and attractive country, today and in the future. Through the Delta Programme the Dutch cabinet seeks to ensure…
