WEC: wave energy converter; a device that converts the kinetic energy of ocean waves into usable electricity AUV: autonomous underwater vehicle June 2040 Ocean heat
Congratulations to Trent Dillon, Ali Trueworthy and Katherine Van Ness, three PMEC students chosen as ORISE WPTO-MHK Graduate Student Research Program fellows for 2021. The
From VICE: “According to the DOE, the waves along the US coast could cover 64% of our nation’s energy needs. So why haven’t we harnessed
In 2020, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy (EERE) and the Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) issued the
The Pacific Marine Energy Center’s member universities offer unparalleled knowledge, experience, and testing facilities. A new video from Oregon State University provides a peek into the
Pressure, waves, positions, forces, velocities, accelerations! A lot of measurements go into operating a WEC. Depending on the type of device, the scale, and the
KING 5, the NBC affiliate in Seattle/Tacoma, covered the testing of tidal and current energy turbines using the UW-APL R/V Light, which was specially outfitted
6 months of high-tech marine monitoring using just the power of the Hawaiian waves. That’s the accomplishment of the Wave-powered Adaptable Monitoring Package, which pulled
