We are very excited to announce that COER have joined forces with MOREnergy Lab Research Centre in Politecnico di Torino to host the Wave Energy Workshop 7th ed in Turin, Italy on the 29th April. The scope of the workshop will cover a range of topics across wave energy conversion, with a broad focus on hydrodynamic modelling, control and wave energy technology enhancement, with an industry and policy session, a poster exhibition and a round table discussion from international and local experts. We expect an attendance of 100-150 members of the wave energy community with approximately 25 poster submissions. One of the main focuses of the workshop is to bring together and solidify the community of researchers and industrialists working in this area, while providing some impressions of best practice and state-of-the-art research and to further links with the academic/industrial community. To register, please click here: A nominal registration fee of €40 (+ VAT) will be charged to cover hospitality (lunch and 2 coffee-breaks included). We...

Science Week 2021 Join us on November 9th at 12pm via MSTeams. Marco and Gaston will discuss how a love of maths and science has led them to engineering and ultimately to wave energy. Attendees will have the chance to test their energy maximisation skills by trying our online "latching control" game conceived by COER member Simon. For more info and the MSTeams link, click here...
