Renewable Energy

The ocean and offshore environment represent an abundant source of renewable energy. Engineers must create technologies such as wave-energy converters and wind turbines capable of both harnessing power and withstanding the harsh environment of the sea.

Learn how our department is contributing to future sustainability through our renewable energy research:

• Researchers develop floating renewable energy station
• Mathematical tools predict if wave-energy devices stay afloat in the ocean
• New approach could optimize the design of offshore wind turbines
