FLASC

Daniel is in Tokyo this week, presenting FLASC energy storage solution and exploring opportunities in the Japanese offshore wind market. A big thanks to the EU-Japan Centre for Industrial Cooperation and the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency for support!

[2]... this project will validate key performance data and ensure grid compliance of the system ahead of market entry. By tackling wind intermittency and grid congestion, FLASC is set to accelerate the energy transition. #FLASC #EnergyStorage #EUeic #eicAccelerator

[1] FLASC is taking a major step towards market entry with the development of a grid-connected pilot plant at Plant One Rotterdam BV in 2025-2026. Backed by EIC Accelerator funding (European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency) -->

(2) OESTER presents FLASC an exciting opportunity for further develop out solution towards market entry, while highlighting the offshore energy storage opportunity for the Netherlands. We look forward to a collaboration with all the consortium partners!

(1) Sixteen partners from across the European offshore renewable energy sector have joined forces in project 🐚 OESTER (Offshore Electricity Storage Technology Research) supported by the MOOI scheme from Netherlands Enterprise Agency -->

Jens de Kanter and Daniel Baldacchino had a great visit to Subsea 7 Official in Stavanger to align on our agenda for the year ahead, particularly as we jointly work towards the IJmuiden Ver tender with the FLASC Energy Storage system... and for some cultural exchange as well!

FLASC will be participating in the Green Business Mission to Japan in February 2025! FLASC joins to explore offshore wind market opportunities in Japan and to connect with potenrial partners for feasibility studies and joint projects. Are you attending too? Let’s chat!

Omar Malet Luquin joined FLASC as Electrical Power & Control Consultant! At FLASC, Omar is spearheading the software and electrical conversion aspects of our upcoming grid-connected pilot plant. Welcome!

It is our pleasure to announce that the 9th Offshore Energy and Storage Symposium shall be held at the beautiful city of Bari, Italy between 16 – 18 July 2025. The call for abstracts is now open. More details available from the event website: osessociety.com/oses2025

Luke Aquilina joined FLASC as a Mechanical Engineer (Consultant)! In his part-time role, Luke will be contributing to the development of the qualification program supported by the EIC Accelerator. Another half of the time will be still devoted to University of Malta. Welcome!

Enjoy reading the new article: "Subsea Long-Duration Energy Storage for Integration with Offshore Wind Farms" by Charise Cutajar, Tonio Sant, Luke Aquilina, Daniel Buhagiar and Daniel Baldacchino mdpi.com/1996-1073/17/2…

@Bloomberg reports that Europe's offshore wind industry is at a crossroads: abundant wind power is driving electricity prices so low that new investments are no longer attractive. Now is the perfect time to start a decades-long boom in offshore wind energy storage.

Here is a great video with the FLASC pitch produced by Katapult Ocean 🤩 Everything you wanted to know about our energy storage solution, explained in 3 minutes with great illustrations: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Wrapping up our Katapult Ocean accelerator program with a visit by Daniel Buhagiar to Oslo for Investor Day. Big thanks to the Katapult Ocean team for organising a great program, we certainly learned a lot, and we are looking forward to the next steps in our investment journey!

(2) A key highlight: offshore wind developers will need to think hard about how their energy will impact the grid... System integration is 40% of the scoring criteria for both IMV-Gamma sites! This challenge could be adressed with FLASC offshore energy storage.

(1) Almost the entire FLASC team was a OEEC showcasing and pitching our solution, and connecting with an incredible network of industry leaders. This event feels extra pertinent as it is just after @RVO_Nederland published the IMV-Gamma and NDW1A draft tender criteria ->>

Today we say farewell and a heartfelt thank you to our departing board members, Professor Juanito Camilleri and Professor Saviour Zammit, who have been instrumental in our journey. At the same time, we’re thrilled to welcome Simon G. Fabri and Leonie Baldacchino to the board!

We're #hiring a new Hydraulic Controls Engineer and Electrical Engineer in Delft, South Holland. Please, apply via LinkedIn page: linkedin.com/company/flasc

We are thrilled to share that FLASC has been selected as one of six companies to receive support from the Smart Energy Systems subsidy provided by the Municipality of Rotterdam!This subsidy will allow us to investigate the integration of a pilot at intended locations in Rotterdam

It was a great start of the day at the iTanks Pitch breakfast hosted by RWE! It was early, but the energy and enthusiasm were clear as many in the energy community gathered for the inspiring RWE session and pitches from innovative startups, including FLASC.
