This is an online event.Path to Clean Energy Presents: The Vast Potential of Marine Energy
Join us on March 30th at 12:00 pm ET for the National Hydropower Association's Path to Clean Energy Virtual Event, “The Vast Potential of Marine Energy”.
At this virtual event, top officials within the U.S. Department of Energy’s Waterpower Technologies Office, National Labs, Ocean Energy Europe and technology developers will discuss the potential market opportunities for marine energy (wave, tidal, ocean current, ocean thermal, and riverine marine).
Panelists will also speak to the importance of these findings as this resource strives toward commercialization. Marine energy CEO’s of ORPC, Verdant, C-Power and Oscilla will discuss their recent accomplishments, challenges they have faced along the way and what’s next.
Recently, the Department of Energy recently released a resource assessment on marine energy’s potential, and the results are surprising. Leveraging just one-tenth of available marine energy resources in the 50 states would equate to 5.7% of U.S electricity generation.
