H2O's Marine Energy newsletter shares news and updates on tools, analysis, and emerging technologies to advance marine energy.
Below are stories about marine energy featured by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Hydropower and Hydrokinetic Office.
A new online database maps out scientific and regulatory data for marine energy regulators and developers to accelerate and reduce the cost of permitting.
Seven Ocean Observing Prize competitors were selected for their novel approaches to marine energy-powered systems that seek to enable better prediction of hurricane intensity, which marks the winners’ first step in a three-stage contest.
Two deployed river hydrokinetic system help power Igiugig, Alaska, simultaneously reducing diesel dependence and supporting a local workforce.
Team conducts in-water demonstrations for a novel “Water Horse” hydrokinetic device that sits above rushing rivers, taking a first step to collect data to analyze its true costs and validate its potential as a reliable, lower-cost source of clean energy.
WPTO selected three students for the next Marine and Hydrokinetic Graduate Student Research Program cohort. These students will undertake research to advance the understanding and development of marine energy renewable resources.
DOE announces $25 million in funding for eight innovative projects that will support increased research, development, and demonstration of wave energy technologies and represent the first round of open-water testing at the PacWave South test site.
WPTO and NOAA awarded additional support to the six teams competing in the BUILD Contest of the Ocean Observing Prize, which challenges innovators to integrate marine renewable energy with ocean observation platforms.
DOE and NREL today announced that the Energy Transitions Initiative Partnership Project is accepting applications from remote, island, and islanded communities for technical assistance to transform their energy systems and increase energy resilience.
With funding from WPTO, C-Power and Saab are partnering on a 6-month trial of an autonomous portable wave converter that will use the ocean’s waves to produce clean energy while simultaneously mapping the vastly unexplored ocean.
On December 7, WPTO will host a webinar on the water power-focused topics in the FY 2022 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Programs. Speakers will share highlights on each WPTO topic and sub-topic.
