During the recent EADA (India) conference, which promotes the exchange and development of dredging technology, Royal IHC presented its design for a liquefied natural gas (LNG) powered trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD). Following the introduction of Emission Control Areas by the International Ma
Take a look at the video showing Eco Wave Power’s wave energy plant during stormy conditions – with storm protection mechanism designed to protect the floats from damage – in action.
Lloyd’s Register (LR) has released guidance notes for inspection with next-generation drone and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The company said the new guidance approach supports industry in the safe and effective deployment of these systems that can significantly improve productivity gains throug
Researchers from the University of Exeter have tested a new sea-going robot that can map the seabed using its own intelligence which could prove favorable for offshore industry.
A North American sand and gravel company was recently in the market for a new and efficient electric dredge to replace their existing diesel drag line. The customer decided to move forward with an Rohr-Idreco 300 (12″) electric jet suction dredge, which has a digging depth of 60 ft. (18 m) and produ
To address water-related issues, decision-makers and experts across the world need to access information, data and models quickly to support their strategic planning, preparedness and response activities. The new interactive data research laboratory (iD-Lab) at Deltares officially opened yesterday t
Dynamic Systems Analysis (DSA) has led the launch of the EcoSPRAY, a marine structure designed to gather data to verify the behaviour of floating tidal energy platforms and their moorings in high-energy turbulent tidal flows. The research program is designed to gain a better understanding of the imp
Developers should pay more attention to the needs of island communities when consulting on harnessing their potential as sources of renewable energy, a study suggests.
The Alaskan Native Tribe is to benefit from the US Department of Energy’s latest $9 million funding award announcement by harnessing the energy of the tides to lower their current high cost of energy. The Alaskan False Pass Tribal Council has been granted $1 million in funding for the deployment of
The Australian Government is establishing a $1 billion Clean Energy Innovation Fund to support emerging clean energy technologies’ leap from demonstration to commercial deployment.
FORCE, OERA, and Nova Scotia Department of Energy announced $500,000 in funding to begin a new environmental effects monitoring program (EEMP) at the FORCE site in the Minas Passage.
Protean Wave Energy, a Perth-based wave energy developer, is considering the possibility of using wave energy to produce power for subsea datacenters.
Last October, the French tidal energy developer Sabella was a victim of a hacker attack which temporarily rendered the computer managing Sabella’s D10 tidal turbine and accompanying equipment unusable.
Carnegie Wave Energy has formed an alliance with Energy Made Clean (EMC) which will focus on the delivery of a combination of renewable technologies in the form of microgrids to islands, off-grid and grid-connected communities.
