This information will be connected through a digital twin &#8211; a virtual version of an offshore wind farm &#8211; that lets users test and compare different design and management options. This will allow stakeholders to identify the best trade-offs between performance, impacts, and project acceptability, whether for bottom-fixed or floating installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COMPASS is grounded in multiple real offshore wind farm case studies across European sea basins, covering different technologies, foundation types, turbine sizes and co-activity configurations. These case studies, provided by leading industry partners, will be used to prototype, test and validate the platform, ensuring it directly supports tenders, permitting and long-term planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Euronovia&#8217;s role within COMPASS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the consortium, Euronovia plays a key role as leader of communication and dissemination activities, ensuring that the results of the COMPASS project are shared with the appropriate stakeholders.
