Abstract This article aims to shed light on the recent sustainable transformation dynamics of Norwegian aquaculture industry. Drawing perspectives from socio‐technical transition studies this investigates how process has been shaped by a specific policy instrument known as development licenses (DL) launched in 2015. The captures DL transformative innovation and shows played key role steering directionality technological innovations sector instigate reveals that prompted emergence new challenged‐oriented systems through reorientation reconfiguration processes. These processes specifically involved both mobilization actor‐networks industry, including functional regulatory organ—the Directorate Fisheries—and harnessing locally available pre‐existing knowledge skills—particularly Petro‐maritime licensing scheme means industry is currently becoming based multiple production technologies. However, we suggest addressing long‐term imperatives will largely depend upon ability identify support further promising niche

Aquaculture in exposed and/or distant ocean sites is an emerging industry and field of study that addresses the need to improve food security along with challenges posed by expansion urban coastal stakeholders into nearshore sheltered marine waters. This move necessitates innovative solutions for this thrive high-energy environments. Some research has increased understanding physics, hydrodynamics, structural requirements enabling development appropriate systems. The blue mussel ( Mytilus edulis ), New Zealand green shell or lipped Perna canaliculus Pacific Oyster (Magallana gigas), are primary targets commercial bivalve aquaculture. Researchers members actively advancing existing structures developing new methodologies these alternative high-value species suitable such conditions. For macroalgae (seaweed) cultivation, as sugar kelp Saccharina latissimi oar weed Laminaria digitata sp. Ecklonia sp.), longline systems commonly used, but further needed withstand fully environments productivity efficiency. In finfish aquaculture, three design categories open net pens identified: flexible gravity pens, rigid megastructures, closed submersible pens. As aquaculture ventures more demanding environments, a concerted focus on operational efficiency imperative. publication considers progress relating aquaculture’s seas, particular cultivation bivalves, macroalgae, technologies developments.
