SmartBay to Take Part in Ocean Energy Europe Conference

SmartBay will be exhibiting at the upcoming Ocean Energy Europe conference in Paris, France on the 1st and 2nd of October.

General Manager, John Breslin, Operations & Technical Manager, Mark Wemyss and Strategic Funding & Project Coordinator Diarmuid O’Connor will be attending this event. They will be on-hand at the SmartBay stand if interested companies would like to discuss SmartBay Ireland, the Irish marine test and validation facility, 1/4 scale wave energy device or component deployment and available funding (up to 45%) for developers who wish to deploy at the test site.

This annual conference attracts an extensive network of ocean energy professionals and public representatives to produce Europe’s premier ocean event. Ocean Energy Europe has 300 registered attendees and a fully sold out exhibition area featuring 36 companies from across Europe, with less than one week to go. SmartBay will profile the opportunities at the Galway Bay test site to ocean energy professionals and public representatives.

Ocean Energy Europe is the trade association for ocean renewables in Europe. Their collective strength makes Ocean Energy Europe the largest and most influential network of ocean energy professionals in Europe. Ocean Energy Europe is the main point of contact between the sector and EU institutions and works closely with the European Commission in important policy dossiers such as Horizon 2020, the SET-Plan Integrated Roadmap and the Ocean Energy Forum.
