Although the project succeeded in generating significant amounts of data and
new information, the high maintenance costs, exposed nature of the site, and slow
growth of marine fish species (cod, haddock and halibut) created operational and
economic challenges.
3.4 Case Study on Multi-use on Open Ocean Environment
3.4.1 Methodology
This third case study picks up from the two previous case studies and details how
the existing aquaculture technologies might be effectively utilized in a multi-use
arrangement. In here, the multi-use of offshore wind energy and open ocean
aquaculture is investigated experimentally. The location of interest for this

Oceanographic parameters measured included wave height, current speed and direction,
temperature, salinity, oxygen, turbidity and fluorescence
