Harnessing the Power of the Sea for Renewable Energy
Could the famously predictable tides provide reliable power to coastal communities? What if the same waves that induce queasiness made aquaculture more productive?
The UNH-led Atlantic Marine Energy Center (AMEC) is developing the technology and skills that will unlock the power of the sea as a renewable source of energy. A new $12 million award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) will advance these efforts by funding research, facilities and workforce development for the marine energy industry.
