In collaboration with Stichting Zeeuwse Publieke Belangen, we launched the Boost The Energy Transition challenge. The energy transition faces significant challenges, as both the demand for and supply of electricity increase, leading to grid congestion as the first major obstacle.
Build the future of energy!
Stichting Zeeuwse Publieke Belangen (SZPB) and Dockwize invited entrepreneurs, researchers, and innovators in early 2024 to participate in the Boost the Energy Transition Challenge. This challenge offered a unique opportunity to develop innovative plans contributing to the energy transition in Zeeland.
Why this challenge?
The energy transition faces significant challenges. With the growing demand for electricity and an increasing supply, we are confronted with grid congestion. At the same time, studies show that electricity will only account for up to 50% of the future energy mix. This makes it crucial to accelerate the development of a climate-neutral gas and heat network alongside the growth of the electricity grid.
The challenge
How can we, within two years, demonstrate through innovative projects and pilots in Zeeland that we can utilize and integrate diverse energy networks in a much smarter way to accelerate the energy transition? That is the question participants tackled during this challenge.
Applications for the challenge are now closed.

Green Gas from Organic Waste Streams
Project Description:
GazPack aims to support the environmentally friendly conversion of organic waste streams into usable green gas, providing a sustainable solution for manure processing.
The Future of Emission-Free Work Vehicles
Project Description:
Hudson Tech aims to design and validate the most sustainable modular factory for producing emission-free work vehicles, ensuring they always operate within the limited 3x80A connection.
Reliable Sustainable Energy with Hydrogen
Project Description:
HyER Power develops and manufactures the HyER Power Plant, a system that efficiently generates heat and electricity using hydrogen. This system combines a heat pump with a fuel cell, making it twice as efficient as conventional systems.
Sustainable Heat Production with Iron Fuel
Project Description:
RIFT aims to conduct a feasibility study for an Iron Fuel boiler pilot system, focusing on sustainable heat production for various industries.
Solving Grid Congestion in Zierikzee
Project Description:
Saman aims to address grid congestion at the Gouwepoort industrial area in Zierikzee by establishing a shared energy hub with battery storage, supported by a group transport agreement.
