Marine Renewables Infrastructure Network for Emerging Energy Technologies (MARINET)
Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Offshore Renewable Conversion systems are mostly at the pre-commercial stage of development. They comprise wave energy and tidal stream converters as well as offshore wind turbines for electrical generation. These devices require research to be undertaken at a series of scales along the path to commercialization. Each technology type is currently at a different stage of development but each one al ...

Development of a condition monitoring system for tidal stream generator structures (TidalSense)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2011,
Due to the increasing demand for renewable energy, a great deal of effort is being put into the development of tidal power generation systems. As these systems go in to commercial production and service, it is important to consider and develop inspection and condition monitoring techniques and systems. Condition monitoring of such systems could be used to greatly reduce the risk of failures and th ...
