What is it about?

The article examines how organizing the innovation can enable achievement of competitiveness. The findings show the triple helix approach with integration between government, universities and industries as very useful for the offshore wind park ecosystem to enable innovation. Transnational flexible alignment of regulations and procedures with focus between the helices on timeliness, transparency and open collaboration practices are essential. Complementary dynamic knowledge generation can be developed when the triple helix also integrates Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the helix approach.

Why is it important?

The understanding of how the the triple helix can provide a platform for organizing the offshore wind park ecosystem to enable innovation is very important for society in the long run. Sustainability of society is one of the most important issues in the world and therefore the understanding of how renewable energy and ecosystems can support sustainability is becoming a central issue in the world.

Perspectives

The perspectives of renewable energy can prosper through application of the triple helix approach. The ecosystem of governments, universities and industry can organize innovation for much faster growth of renewable energy.
