Exciting times are ahead for testing wave-powered renewable energy devices engineered here in the #PNW by Oscilla Power, Inc. and C·Power (Columbia Power). New article by lisa stiffler GeekWire provides an update with quotes from PMEC Director Brian Polagye (Mechanical Engineering at UW). geekwire.com/2021/tide-turn…
The #TritonC is in Hawaii! It arrived safe and sound yesterday. The Oscilla Power, Inc. team will be heading out there in the next few days to lift it into the water and make it ready to install! #waveenergy #cleanenergy #innovation
Thanks to a $2 million U.S. Department of Energy grant, scientists will collect data to minimize potential impacts of offshore #WindEnergy infrastructure on seabirds, whales, dolphins & porpoises on the West Coast. Oregon Sea Grant's Leigh Torres is one of the researchers. bit.ly/3BZmF6i

Special thanks in advance to U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm for touring Oregon State University PMEC - Pacific Marine Energy Center this afternoon to learn more about the @eeregov WPTO energy.gov/eere/water/pac… project and C·Power (Columbia Power). Urgent action is necessary to support a thriving domestic #marineenergy sector. Let’s do it!
Marine energy could be a real game-changer for coastal/island communities, making energy more reliable and affordable for millions of homes. Oregon State University is one the leading institutions on wave energy research & a key U.S. Department of Energy partner. Governor Kate Brown Ron Wyden Senator Jeff Merkley
Big thanks to Oregon State University for showing Secretary Jennifer Granholm & everybody yesterday how its wave research lab in Corvallis is providing top-quality marine energy R & D. OSU and its students are definitely ready to ride the wave of good news with the #InflationReductionAct.
Yesterday, U.S. Department of Energy Sec. Jennifer Granholm, Oregon U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden & Senator Jeff Merkley and Governor Kate Brown visited the Wave Research Laboratory at Oregon State University to learn about important #marineenergy research & development.
