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.

WPTO recently launched the Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH) Valuation Tool, a web-based platform that takes users through the valuation process presented in the Pumped Storage Hydropower Valuation Guidebook.

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.

In Alaska, where temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the United States, decarbonizing the power grid is no easy feat. WPTO is helping Alaskans tap a massive renewable energy source rushing through their state: water.
