Development goals
Norges Vels development project, aims to find
and map the potential regarding a Norwegian
algae cultivation, processes and products-
The vision Is to contribute in the establishing of a
competitive Norwegian industry with growing,
processing and products algae as a recourses
• Locate opportunities to use algae direct or indirect
as a new resource in products, processes
• Work to enhance the blue - green cooperation
that require knowledge of plant and marine
technology knowledge

Project goals- how to
operationalize these goals??
• Norges Vel take initiative to be partners
in projects with producers, users and
research and development relevant to
local communities
• Commercialization of R & D results
• Work towards a long-term and favorable
framework conditions for the algae
industry

Value chain development- what's
our role?
• coordinate relevant actors and networks
• aims to be the bridge between research and industry
by applying research results in the development of eg
algae industry in Norway
• support the small, medium and existing companies to
develop the sector further, based on research results
• Developing pilot that can be models for future
entrepreneurs.

Pilots
Pilots demonstrates very effectively if research and
development results are ready for commercialization
regarding different value chains; products,
production processes, raw materials, etc.
The pilots also provides knowledge and data
concerning future use of resources, knowledge,
needs and interpersonal skills between the involved
actors.
Pilots demonstrates effectively how value
chains can develop, both high end products and
volume based products.
8Pilots
The pilots we are engaged in includes all parts (algae)
value chain, with the aim to demonstrate the
production cycle,
production processes
products ready for market.
mapping the extent to which coastal industries,
agricultural sector and (other) producers can be
involved as potential growers and markets for algae
products.
We search for both local entrepreneurs and bigger
ventures
9PILOT VAL vgs.
10Preliminary Val vgs. pilot project
The pilot project will prepare the ground for a pilot plant to
demonstrate algae cultivation in the sea in the direction of Val vgs,
educational, industrial development in the region.
Project partners: Bellona and Bioforsk nord
Use in teaching in Val vgs.
• Tracing how the pilot can be adapted for instruction on Vg1/Vg2
• Planning how the pilot can be used to build up expertise and networks within algal
cultivation
Future industrial development
• Estimation of the potential for local economic development in the region and new jobs for
algal cultivation and supply chain
• Initial assessment of the actors in the region who are interested in algae cultivation, and
the involvement of the most relevant actors.
11Another pilot: eg. valuechain food
12For the future
Challenges-
What we need to solve to break the barriers from
research to commerce marked
Who is the potential producers?
Small scale vs. industrial scale production
High value products vs. low value products
Norwegian marked?
Is there a will?
Marked-
Access to information and technology
Efficiency knowledge transfers
Upscale? Marked? Value?
