The ocean energy pioneers of tomorrow have been offered the chance to compete for a week of free testing at FloWave, the world’s most sophisticated ocean energy simulator.
On Saturday 27th September the FloWave Ocean Energy Research Facility joined colleagues across the University of Edinburgh’s Science and Engineering campus in welcoming members of the public ‘behind closed doors’ for the annual ‘Doors Open Day’.
This autumn we are pleased to once again welcome the public into the FloWave wave and tidal research facility at King’s Buildings on Saturday 27th September.
New climate change minister Amber Rudd MP found out first-hand about the UK’s leading role in ocean energy research and development when she officially opened FloWave today (August 5).
FloWave TT Ltd and the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) have agreed to share data collected at EMEC’s wave and tidal test sites in the Orkney Isles.
Since the 1970’s The University of Edinburgh has been at the forefront of ocean energy research. FloWave clients can call on global expertise from the University’s Institute for Energy Systems whenever extra input is required.
