The Energy Transition Zone will become a focal point and catalyst for high-value manufacturing, research, development, testing and deployment; with significant opportunities in offshore wind, hydrogen, carbon capture and storage. Through our SUT-SEO Atlantic & Europe special interest group, and the Marine Energy Renewables Committees we must work together and collaborate to make this a smooth energy transition, sharing knowledge and experiences as we go and make it an interesting career path for young subsea engineering and operations professionals as we transition to a Net Zero Economy across the Atlantic by 2050 and the wider Blue Economy.</p> <p>Industry collaboration is critical across our SUT-SEO Atlantic & Europe special interest sectors with the likes of International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA), OPITO the Global Underwater Hub, IMarEST or the Marine Technology Society (MTS) to help create a sustainable marine and offshore energy sector workforce for years to come.</p> <h3><a href="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-84234 aligncenter" src="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2.jpg" alt="" width="590" height="458" srcset="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2.jpg 599w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2-300x233.jpg 300w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2-167x130.jpg 167w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-2-161x125.jpg 161w" sizes="(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px" /></a></h3> <h3><strong>Supporting and enriching local well-being.</strong></h3> <p>With backing from respective Governments, the Energy Transition Zone in the U.K. will deliver an integrated approach to support local economic wellbeing and contribute to a successful national transition to net zero by 2050. We at the SUT believe the Energy Transition Zone will also enrich traditional coastal communities, creating a green energy coast and better connecting these communities to the city.</p> <p>Throughout the development and delivery of the Energy Transition Zone, the SUT will work with the local community to advance equality of opportunities, deliver economic benefits, and support inclusive growth. The ETZ are exploring the development of a number of specific projects and initiatives that, if the community supports them, would ultimately have the aim of creating enhanced opportunities and improving civic spaces and amenities</p> <h3><strong><a href="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class=" wp-image-84240 aligncenter" src="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4.jpg" alt="" width="637" height="444" srcset="https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4.jpg 542w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4-300x209.jpg 300w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4-186x130.jpg 186w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4-150x106.jpg 150w, https://sut.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/SEO-image-4-179x125.jpg 179w" sizes="(max-width: 637px) 100vw, 637px" /></a></strong></h3> <h3><strong>Energy Transition Zone</strong></h3> <p>By 2030, ETZ Ltd will have designed and completed the phased development of a unique Energy Transition Zone adjacent to the new £400m development at Aberdeen South Harbour; delivering a location for the accelerated development of a net zero energy cluster to attract new investment and deliver net zero.</p> <p>The ETZ will create 2,500 direct jobs and a further 10,000 energy transition-related jobs across the region. It will also be a net zero exemplar and home to leading-edge innovation, making it a centre of excellence for floating offshore wind and other renewables, including hydrogen. The SUT will communicate and collaborate with the ETZ and its aligned approaches of the SUT as a Learned Society for the benefit of current and future SUT members.</p> <hr /> <p>For further information, please contact <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cfa6a1a9a08fbcbabbe1a0bda8"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="cea7a0a8a18ebdbbbae0a1bca9">[email protected]</span></a></p> <div id="committee-link"> <!-- <img src="/images/svg/icon-committee.svg"> <span>IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THIS COMMITTEE PLEASE LOG IN HERE</span> --> <!-- <form action="/wp-login.php" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="log" id="log" value="" /> <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" /> <input type="submit" value="LOGIN"> <input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="" /> </form> --> <span>LOGIN TO THIS COMMITTEE</span> <a href="https://sut.org/committee/subsea-engineering-and-operations/"></a> </div> </div> <div id="primary-sidebar" class="" role="complementary"> <h2>SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS</h2> <ul class="page-list"> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/diving-and-manned-submersibles/"> Diving and Crewed Submersibles </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/education/"> Education </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/environmental-forces-sutgef/"> Environmental Forces (SUTGEF) </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/marine-renewable-energies/"> Marine Renewable Energies </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/osig-offshore-site-investigation-and-geotechnics/"> OSIG (Offshore Site Investigation and Geotechnics) and ECOSIGG </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/policy-advisory/"> SUT - Policy Advisory </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/salvage-and-decommissioning/"> Salvage and Decommissioning </a> </li> <li class="current"> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/subsea-engineering/"> Subsea Engineering and Operations (SEO) Atlantic & Europe </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/panel-on-underwater-robotics/"> Panel on Underwater Robotics </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/young-professionals/"> Young Professionals International </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/marine-environmental-science/"> Marine Environmental Science </a> </li> <li> <a href="https://sut.org/specialist-interest-group/uxo-unexploded-ordnance/"> UXO (Unexploded Ordnance) </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div><!-- #content --> <div id="footer" class="site-footer" role="contentinfo"> <div class="wrap site-info container"> <div id="footer-nav"> <a href="https://sut.org/sitemap/">Sitemap</a> | <a href="https://sut.org/society-for-underwater-technology-policies/">Policies</a><!-- | <a href="#">Site Info</a> | <a href="#">Privacy Policy</a> --> </div> <div id="footer-social"> <ul class="footer-social-links"> <li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Society-for-Underwater-Technology/221972184538509" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/SUT_news" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/sutuk" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-linkedin"></i></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/SUTMedia" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-youtube"></i></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.instagram.com/societyforunderwater/" target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-instagram"></i></a></li> </ul> </div> <p id="copyright">Copyright © 2025 Society for Underwater Technology.
