DOE's Water Power Technologies Office and WETO will host an informational webinar to discuss the $14.5 million funding opportunity to support foundational research at domestic institutions of higher education, including minority-serving institutions, to address challenges facing marine and ocean renewable energy industries and spur innovation and development. The opportunity will fund projects across four topic areas, including a joint-effort between WPTO and WETO for up to $1.5 million for projects that advance potential synergies between offshore wind and/or marine energy and aquaculture development.
