The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to the University of New Hampshire (UNH) Center for Ocean Renewable Energy (CORE) to develop a tidal energy testing platform to be deployed at two sites in the Piscataqua River; specifically at the General Sullivan Bridge and at the Memorial Bridge. The purpose of the tidal energy testing site would be to deploy tidal energy devices that have been developed in the laboratory and are ready for field testing to optimize their performance and durability.
