TESTING WAVE ENERGY FOR THE FUTURE
About us
If you have ever stood by the ocean and watched waves roll in, curling repeatedly into the sand or sending spray sky-high against a rocky shore, you’ve experienced the seemingly infinite power of the ocean. What if we could harness some of that renewable energy to power our homes and businesses? Diverse energy sources are needed to address issues from community needs for local power to global climate change. Industry is working to develop devices that can harvest energy from waves. PacWave, based at Oregon State University, helps industry test those ideas. PacWave is an open ocean wave energy testing facility consisting of two sites, each located just a few miles from the deep-water port of Newport, Oregon on the ever-energetic Pacific Ocean. Both PacWave sites are highly accessible and served by a diverse maritime supply chain. PacWave is affiliated with the Pacific Marine Energy Center.

PacWave reposted this
At NHA, we love when members receive exposure for their work, and the stories, which are being featured nationally, about PacWave bring deserved attention to both the innovative and important role of #WaterPower in achieving a clean energy future.
Marine energy, according to NREL, is the “world’s greatest untapped energy resource.” Great article highlighting PacWave, the new marine energy testing facility being built off the coast of Oregon, and the 40 operational grid-connected projects already generating clean electricity around the world. After years of NHA advocacy on behalf of PacWave and related efforts, it’s rewarding to see the progress being made to add wave, tidal and current energy to our nation’s electricity mix.

PacWave featured in June's edition of Tunnels & Tunnelling International.
JUNE EDITION OF TUNNELS & TUNNELLING INTERNATIONAL We are pleased to share below a pared-down version of the June 2024 edition of the official British Tunnelling Society publication - Tunnels and Tunnelling International. The edition features insight from Amberg Technologies' on how their automation and data synchronisation systems achieved tunnel survey success on a challenging Norwegian project. With details provided by Mary Jo Wagner. Technical insight is also shared on the PacWave South energy project on Oregon's Pacific Coast. Insight shared by Jacobs's Nason McCullough, The HDD Company's Phill P. and PacWave's Dan Hellin. Bekaert's Benoit De Rivaz also shares his expertise on low carbon concrete linings and analyses the latest available guidance. A spotlight is also shone on key lining advances on the Grand Paris Express as the city prepares to host the 2024 Summer Olympics. Finally, Tunnels and Tunnelling International took an opportunity to review the 50 Iconic Tunnels celebrated by the ITA-AITES at the recent World Tunnel Congress 2024 (WTC 2024), with special attention to the British projects included.
