Atlantis Resources, the developer behind MeyGen tidal energy project, has announced today, July 23, that the last bore hole for the project has been punched through. The first horizontal directional drilling (HDD) hole was punched through on April 21, followed by the second bore hole drilled on May
Subsea Vision has added a forth Saab Seaeye Cougar XT to its fleet. The 2000 metre-rated Cougar is to assist in unexploded ordnance (UXO) disposal. The ROV is used to locate and identify UXOs, which can include excavating the seabed to see the objects more clearly. The Cougar then lays a charge alon
Premiers of Canada’s provinces issued Canadian Energy Strategy document that aims to strengthen the economy, create jobs, ensure a secure supply of energy for all Canadians, address the climate change, and support energy innovation. The Energy Strategy provides the foundation for provinces and terri
A further delay in providing clarity on support for renewables could ’cause damage to Scotland’s offshore wind and islands renewable energy projects’ according to Scotland’s Energy Minister Fergus Ewing. The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) has postponed vital announcements on Contract
Fukushima Offshore Wind Consortium plans to tow the 7 MW wind turbine from Onahama Port to its offshore site on July 31-August 1 and moor it in the following 20 days. Then, from August 20 to September 30, the developer plans to carry out the laying and burying of riser cable at the Fukushima Experim

Sabella, a French tidal energy developer, has chosen Open Ocean’s current analysis system Metocean Analytics for the examination of the ocean currents on Sabella’s future tidal energy sites. According to Open Ocean, Metocean Analytics simplifies and accelerates the search and analysis process for po
Pacific Island countries and territories, and development partners are meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, to discuss the increase in the use of renewable energy. According to IRENA, key speakers will discuss comprehensive approaches to energy sector transformation, including the importance of enabling leg
Nova Scotia and British Columbia have renewed their partnership in order to advance Canada’s marine renewable energy industry. The representatives from both provinces have signed a Memorandum of Understanding which outlines key priorities, including partnering on research and technology development,
Wave energy converter (WEC) modelling team, sponsored by the US Energy Department, has won the Center for Ocean Energy Research (COER) Hydrodynamic Modeling Competition. Through the competition, researchers were challenged to predict the dynamic motion of a floating body in an irregular wave field u
CalWave is developing a wave energy converter whose design is inspired by the ability of muddy seafloors to effectively absorb overpassing ocean waves. Researchers participating in CalWave project came up with the idea of using a viscoelastic carpet of wave-energy conversion (CWEC) placed over a net
