A great few days in Bilbao ended with our presentation today. The highlight was last nights Gala dinner in the Guggenheim 👏🏼👏🏼to EWTEC2023 organising committee

#EWTEC23 is coming to an end, and so is our participation in it! It was great to have the opportunity to talk in different sessions about the research developed in the SafeWAVE project as well as to be able to have a side event dedicated to it. #renewables #environment #offshore

As #EWTEC2023 comes to an end, we'd like to express our deepest gratitude to all attendees, speakers, and organizers! The closing ceremony featured inspiring speeches from the leaders of upcoming wave and tidal energy conferences across the globe! #RenewableEnergy 👋​🌊​ EWTEC

We will see you in two years at #EWTEC2025, which will be hosted by the Instituto Superior Técnico (part of Lisbon University ULisboa ) and will take place in Madeira, Portugal! 🏝️​ See you there! 🙌

🛥 What a joyful time at yesterday’s technical visit to BiMEP , an infrastructure for testing prototypes of ocean energy collectors and auxiliary equipment on the open sea. It is located in front of the coast of Armintza. (Biscay). #EWTEC2023 EWTEC

⚓️The perfect finale to #EWTEC2023! Our conference attendees soaked in the beauty of Bilbao during a delightful sailing trip through the picturesque estuary! Hope you all had an amazing time! 🛥️​☀️​ @ewtec

It's been a great edition of #EWTEC2023! More than 300 experts have brilliantly discussed the present and future of wave and tidal energy from a perspective of innovation and respect for the planet. We are deeply grateful to the city of #Bilbao, that has welcomed us so warmly.💙
