Christian von der Ohe is the RD&I Manager at GCE NODE and the maker of the test machine which RISE (project owner) is using.

MORE will demonstrate a multi-degradation validation pathway for materials and subcomponents to be used as a case study in the offshore renewable energy sector.

While innovative offshore renewable energy device technologies are gaining popularity, operating them in harsh marine environment is a complex and challenging process that jeopardizes the deployment of these very important technologies for the future generations.

The MORE project will focus on harmonizing small- and large-scale multi-degradation rigs, to create a fast track for validation of materials, starting from, but not limited to, metallic materials and metal coatings typically suffering tribocorrosion and multi-degradation (passive metals), to enable the industrial uptake of these methods and improve the systems’ reliability and lifetime.

MORE is a 3-year project bringing together a strong value chain from four European countries (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Italy) including research and innovation partners, technology developers, and actors in supply chain and validation.
