Experience 1:
Win with your knowledge about hydrogen! Take part in this unique team experience: the Hydrogen Race Cars. Does your team know the most about hydrogen? Then you will see your little car race around the track first! Students will guide this!
Experience 2:
Build your own miniature offshore wind farm! Each team will be given a budget to invest in supplies, knowledge and materials. Who can build the most cost-effective wind farm and win the challenge? After the testing phase, the team with the lowest investment will be crowned the winner! Students will guide this!

The Rich North Sea
Discover the unparalleled beauty of North Sea marine life in the Rich North Sea Cinema. Learn about nature enhancement in offshore wind farms and discover the life to be found there. Rich North Sea aims to strengthen nature in the North Sea. their dream: A healthy North Sea, source of renewable energy, rich in nature and full of life.

Provincie Noord-Holland
As a sponsor of Sail Den Helder, the province of North Holland is taking visitors into the new world of hydrogen. The port of Den Helder is going to play an important role in this.
Experience 1:
Meet the racing of the future, Forze Hydrogen Racing is going to exhibit their Forze IX racing car at the event. The Forze IX racing car is a race car used for races in the Formula Zero competition.
Visitors can race the Forze IX racing car in the Hydrogen Racing simulator. This allows them to experience hands on what it is like to drive (virtually) in car powered by hydrogen.
Experience 2:
The hydrogen demo makes hydrogen generation tangible! In this demo, solar panels are used to generate energy which in turn is used to produce hydrogen. The hydrogen is then converted into electricity which drives a propeller.
Experience 3:
Kenneth & Andor present the Hydrogen Quiz at the Blue Port Center. What do you know about hydrogen or new energy? What do you know about blue or green hydrogen? What is happening in Den Helder? In short, test your knowledge and win a great Sail Den Helder prize!
