A new survey of 2,000 California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia residents gives insights about west coast residents’ knowledge of, and attitudes towards, wave energy.

This summer PMEC graduate students participated in the Project Blue@Summer program; virtually mentoring high school interns through the process of writing an ocean energy-related research paper.

Video interviews discuss how PMEC researchers contribute to the larger social conversation about wave energy and social issues related to its use in coastal communities.

PMEC social scientist Shana Hirsch studies the renewable energy industry in Scotland, where marine technologies dominate, as a lens for innovation ecosystems and energy transitions across Europe and around the globe.
