About
Founded in 2023, ULTFARMS is a government headquartered in Kiel, Germany specializing in Wind, Other.
ULTFARMS is a pioneering 42-month Horizon Europe Ocean Mission project (January 2023–June 2026) led by Deltares with a consortium of 25 members from 9 countries. The project aims to transform offshore aquaculture by integrating low-trophic aquaculture (LTA) systems—including seaweed (Saccharina latissima) and molluscs—within offshore wind farms across the North and Baltic Seas. The initiative develops six pilots in Belgium (Belwind), Netherlands (Borssele III), Germany (FINO2, FINO3), and Denmark (Anholt, Samsø), focusing on innovative engineering, ecological design, and commercial viability. Key objectives include optimizing production in harsh offshore conditions, promoting marine space sharing, ensuring environmental protection, reducing carbon footprints, and establishing profitable production chains of low-trophic species.
