The UK government has launched a £11 million fund for energy entrepreneurs in an effort to drive forward the adoption of new clean technologies across all sectors of UK industry.

A team of engineering researchers from two UK universities have conducted a study which showed that arranging tidal turbines in a close formation, as opposed to wider spacing, results in an increased power capture.

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has added marine energy to the open-source System Advisor Model (SAM) toolkit to facilitate the cost and performance analysis for wave and tidal energy systems.

The fifth and final MaRINET2 call results have been announced, bringing the project’s total budget for free lab, tank and open-sea testing for offshore renewables to €5 million.

Once only a multi-purpose concept, a solution that uses already existing breakwaters coupled with integrated wave energy devices has become a reality in the Powerpier project that will soon be deployed for trials offshore Norway.
