KTN, CENSIS, ORE Catapult and Scottish Enterprise are setting up an event with the aim of facilitating those interested in pursuing collaborative development projects to accelerate the commercial development of offshore wind, wave and tidal technologies.
The morning session will provide an overview of the challenges in the offshore renewable energy sector and an introduction to the ORE Catapult.
There will be presentations from industry and academia focusing on four specific challenge areas: offshore wind blade monitoring, foundation monitoring, cable monitoring, and data analysis.
The afternoon will focus on funding, support and collaboration opportunities.
The afternoon will also feature presentations from CENSIS and Scottish Enterprise giving information on the support they can offer, and a presentation on ‘The Energy Game Changer’ a new funding opportunity with Innovate UK.
The event is suitable for offshore energy developers, commercial technology providers and academic researchers, in particular those with expertise in imaging, sensors and photonics.
It will be held at IET Glasgow: Teacher Building, Glasgow, on March 9, 2016.
