The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Dresser Rand Company to demonstrate the effectiveness of the HydroAir radial turbine, increase the turbine’s power-to-weight ratio, improve design life and overall system performance, as well as reducing manufacturing and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs.
This award previously received two NEPA determinations (GFO-0006609-001; GFO-0006609-002; CX-A9, CX-B3.6) for activities associated with Tasks 1 – 8, Subtasks 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3, and Task 13. The purpose of this NEPA determination is to review and release activities associated with Tasks 9.4 – 9.7, and Tasks 10 – 12. These tasks include delivery of the turbine to a field site, installation within a wave energy device, dockside field testing, and in-water testing, maintenance and repair at the field site.
