The Sea connects us all. The 7th Offshore Energy & Storage Symposium was held on the Mediterranean island of Malta, between 12 - 14 July 2023. This event brought together researchers, industry players and policy makers dedicated to driving the development and growth of offshore renewables and energy storage. This event followed a number of successful events held during the pre-covid 19 pandemic in Canada, Edinburgh, Malta, US, China and France. From its instigation in 2014 the "Offshore Energy and Storage" (OSES) conference series has always been about understanding and minimising the total cost of renewable energy from offshore environments whilst also attending to the sustainability of the solutions presented. OSES 2023 will take place in a world that has seen very clearly just how volatile energy costs can become if the heavy reliance on fossil fuels remains and just how important energy independence is for the integrity of every country. Offshore energy can no longer be simply a general direction of travel without any firm timescale. It must become an imperative that can mature very quickly to assume its inevitable position as one of the largest sources of energy for a Net Zero world. Flexibility solutions must accompany the primary generation technologies in terms of development from both technical and economic/market perspectives.
