About Oceans of Energy
Oceans of Energy is the first company worldwide to design, build and operate (floating) offshore solar systems in harsh open sea conditions. Our technology enables large-scale renewable energy generation at sea, relieving spatial pressure on land while accelerating the global energy transition.
As we move towards commercial roll-out, we are exploring new integrated solutions where offshore solar creates additional value through synergies with other (offshore) industries.
Internship scope
We are looking for MSc interns who are available for at least four months (starting Sept/Oct/Nov 2026) to explore the techno-economic potential of offshore solar systems combined with aquaculture systems (fish and hang culture shellfish farming) and desalination facilities, situated next to the sea.
The main objective is to understand: what does the end-user actually need, and how can offshore solar best deliver value?
The assignment can be shaped around one of two clear internship tracks. You do not need to cover both tracks; we are looking for candidates who bring depth in either the technical/system design side or the market/business side.
Example key questions you will work on
Two internship tracks
We are open to candidates with either of the following profiles. The two tracks are connected, but each intern will have a clear main focus area.
Track 1: Technical / Engineering
This track focuses on system design, energy modelling and technical integration:
Track 2: Business Development / Strategy
This track focuses on market understanding, customer needs and business case development:
