Short description
CtrlAQUA aim to provide novel solutions supporting further expansion of Norwegian aquaculture, thereby securing Norway’s position as the world-leading supplier of aquaculture expertise, technology and sustainable seafood. This is achieved through development of technological and biological innovations to make closed-containment aquaculture systems (CCS) a reliable and economically viable technology, for use in strategic parts of the Atlantic salmon production cycle, thus contributing significantly to solving the challenges limiting the envisioned growth in aquaculture.
