ONS asked #ONS2024 attendees to imagine the possibilities for #leadership and #technology to #decarbonize and improve #security in the #offshoreenergy sector. It was a powerful theme that affirmed our strategy to help the #oceaneconomy reduce the cost, carbon emissions, and complexity of operations through #oceanenergy innovation. Thanks to all our peers and partners at ONS who collaborated with C-Power during a great week in Norway. #cleantech #renewableenergy #decarbonization

National Hydropower Day is Saturday, August 24. As our peers at ORPC said best, we work every day to bring #oceanenergy solutions to remote markets who need it most, create local new jobs, unlock innovation, and advance a reliable source of clean energy. #HydroDay #subsea #subseaengineering #renewableenergy #cleantech #oceaneconomy #offshoreenergy
ORPC celebrates marine energy's role in the clean energy transition on National Hydropower Day. This year's #HydroDay comes as the $1 billion Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act has just been introduced in Congress, legislation that has the potential to position the United States as the market leader in #marineenergy. A form of hydro or waterpower, marine energy harnesses the power of free-flowing rivers, tides, waves and ocean currents to generate clean energy for both on- and off-grid use. As a leader in the Marine Energy Council of the National Hydropower Association, ORPC is working every day toward the shared goal of creating more sustainable power solutions for communities, local jobs and a dependable clean energy future. 📸 Marine energy solutions from C-Power, ORPC and CalWave Inc.

The University Marine Energy Research Community (UMERC) hosted its annual conference in Duluth, Minnesota, earlier this month, with C-Power Senior Associate and UMERC board member Kristiana Terrasa in attendance. UMERC amplifies the power of foundational #marineenergy research, increasing knowledge transfer between universities, national laboratories, and the private sector, and the conference convened research and industry leaders working together to commercialize #oceanenergy technologies and fill critical research gaps. Oh, and there was a great cruise on Lake Superior offering views of the beautiful Duluth lakefront! #oceaneconomy #cleantech #renewableenergy #decarbonization #subsea #subseaengineering

More big news and momentum for the #oceanenergy industry! The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced its intent to provide $112 million in funding to advance the commercial readiness of #waveenergy technologies through open water testing and system validation. This funding will create a critical bridge to help wave energy systems reach commercialization and unlock a powerful #renewableenergy resource — the ocean, the world’s biggest and best battery. #oceaneconomy #blueeconomy #offshoreenergy #cleantech #subsea #subseaengineering

Huge #oceanenergy news yesterday in the U.S. House of Representatives, thanks to Reps. Nanette Barragán and Suzanne Bonamici! "Today, Representatives Nanette Barragán (CA-44) and Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01) introduced the Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act, legislation that would invest $1 billion to advance marine energy toward full scale commercialization."

Open Ocean Robotics has joined C-Power's Partner Engagement and Co-development Program and will co-demonstrate use of an uncrewed surface vessel (USV) during the upcoming field test of our SeaRAY #oceanenergy system at the PacWave South wave energy test site off the Oregon coast. Open Ocean Robotics will test an innovative “data mule” concept in which it deploys a USV to retrieve data from remote seafloor sensors powered by the SeaRAY system. The companies seek to advance a vision in which a C-Power system serves as a central node of power and data for a swarm of Open Ocean Robotics USVs muling data from remote sensors to the C-Power system to be uploaded to the cloud.

Earlier this summer, C-Power Chief Technology Officer Ryan Calder presented at the Ocean Renewable Energy Conference — his first time presenting at a conference as C-Power CTO. Ryan participated in the PacWave Workshop and the technology developer update, sharing progress on our Hawaii and Oregon #oceanenergy demonstrations and our projects with TEAMER - Testing Expertise and Access for Marine Energy Research. Kudos, Ryan!

Following a successful first-phase deployment in October, C-Power launched the second-phase deployment of our SeaRAY #oceanenergy system at the US Navy’s Wave Energy Test Site (WETS) in Hawaii earlier this month. Combined, the two deployments mark the world’s first field test of ocean energy technology purpose-built to support static and mobile assets with in-situ power, subsea energy storage, and real-time data and communications support. #oceaneconomy #blueeconomy #offshoreenergy #security #defense #renewableenergy #electrification #cleantech #decarbonization #subsea #subseaengineering

Today is International Women in Engineering Day, created 11 years ago by the Women's Engineering Society. Women remain under-represented in #engineering, but at C-Power we proudly boast an all-women #mechanicalengineering team of Andrea Wood, Emma Bartlett, and Lisa Hildebrand. Abby McConnell also recently joined the C-Power team as a mechanical engineering graduate research associate from Oregon State University. Thank you to all of these amazing women for your work to advance #oceanenery engineering and unlock the future of the #oceaneconomy and #netzero global economy. #INWED24 #subseaengineering #subsea #offshoreenergy #cleantech #renewableenergy #cleantech
