OPEN-C Foundation
Address : rue de la Noe, 1, 44300, Nantes, France (FR) 44300 Nantes
Fondation OPEN-C is the french offshore test centre for floating wind and marine renewable energy (MRE). It leverages over a decade of experience in derisking tidal and river energy technologies, through the development, operation, and maintenance of several real-sea test sites for a more rapid energy transition.
As project leader of the SHINES project, Fondation OPEN-C is looking forward to the challenge of developing several tidal turbine projects, by leading the project and in particular by testing them through 2 OPEN-C pilot sites: Paimpol-Bréhat and SEENEOH. Committed with all partners to the development of tidal and river energy, we will dedicate all our transversal expertise to the SHINES project.

About Spaak
At Spaak, we see the circular economy as the way to create a world that serves both people and nature. We turn ambitious intentions into realistic business plans. We do this by building our own ventures and by working with customers to address their circularity or sustainability issues. We develop concepts, products, business cases, and industrial systems that help in the transition to a circular economy.
Our main reason for participating in AlgaeVALOR is to gain new knowledge and expertise and to develop effective collaboration, implementation, and training actions. We turn these ideas into business plans for new companies or strategic advice for organizations. With smart business models, we get stakeholders in the chain moving. Together, we build a system that benefits everyone and results in sustainable change.
