Research at the Leichtweiß-Institute for Hydraulic Engineering and Water Resources at Technische Universität Braunschweig (TUBS) addresses the nonlinear, dynamic, stochastic, and complex processes in the marine environment as well as climate-change challenges in offshore engineering and coastal protection. It focuses on wave–structure interaction, coastal dynamics, natural hazards, and protection measures, employing numerical models from high-efficiency to high-fidelity and conducting experimental campaigns in mid- to large-scale test facilities to develop innovative concepts and solutions.
Carnegie Technologies Spain is a wholly owned subsidiary of Carnegie Clean Energy currently delivering the ACHIEVE Programme, the first deployment of CETO in Europe.
Named after a Greek sea goddess, CETO is Carnegie’s core wave energy converter technology. CETO harnesses the enormous untapped energy present in our ocean’s waves and converts it into grid-ready electricity. CETO is a unique, fully submerged, point absorber type wave energy technology. A submerged buoy sits a few metres below the surface of the ocean and moves with the ocean’s waves. This orbital motion drives a power take-off (PTO) system that converts this motion into grid ready electricity.
IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) is a major player in research and training in the fields of energy, transport and the environment. From scientific concepts in fundamental research to technological solutions in applied research, technological innovation is at the heart of its action.
Mondragon Goi Eskola Politeknikoa is a cooperative higher education institution committed to applied research, innovation, and industry collaboration. With strong links to the industrial ecosystem, it offers engineering programs and conducts research in advanced manufacturing, energy, mobility and digital transformation, fostering sustainable technological and social development.
Wavec Offshore Renewables is a Portuguese non-profit research organization with the mission to develop offshore renewable energy through the creation and transfer of knowledge, innovation, and dissemination. The private association was founded in 2003 aiming to develop wave energy and support companies and research centres in the area, through technical and political strategies, however, over the years the association saw an extension of activities into offshore wind and prospect of expansion to other fields. More recently, WavEC are extending the scope of activities to offshore aquaculture and ocean engineering projects.
Aalborg University (AAU) is internationally recognised for its pioneering Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model, where students work in teams to solve real-world challenges. This model emphasises interdisciplinary collaboration, critical thinking, and a direct link between academia and society.
The Department of the Built Environment (BUILD) is one of AAU’s largest departments. BUILD conducts research and education across the full spectrum of the construction and civil engineering sectors. More and more, in recent years, the focus shifted to green transition in building material, energy production and coastal protection due to climate changes. The department fosters a strong collaboration with industry and public institutions, ensuring its work addresses contemporary global challenges like the green transition and digitalisation.
The Marine Offshore Renewable Energy Lab (MOREnergy Lab) at Politecnico di Torino, a research center within the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, is dedicated to advancing the development, analysis, and testing of marine energy technologies. Its primary focus lies in harnessing power from the sea, encompassing Wave Energy, Offshore Wind Energy, also including remote and in-situ monitoring and clean waterborne mobility. The lab conducts multidisciplinary, high-quality research, which includes numerical modeling, system design and holistic techno-economic optimization, advanced control systems, environmental impact assessment, and essential dry hardware-in-the-loop, wave tank and open-sea testing of marine energy converters.
Quoceant provides agile consultancy and engineering services, covering everything from problem-solving and expert review to detailed design, prototyping and testing.
Quoceant work with project developers, OEMs, and engineering companies across fixed and floating wind, wave and tidal, and green heat sectors.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) employs around 60K globally and has a revenue of ~$30.13 billion. HPE operates across key technology segments, including Servers & Compute (e.g. ProLiant, Synergy, Cray HPC systems), Storage & Hybrid Cloud (e.g. Alletra, GreenLake), Intelligent Edge & Networking (e.g. Aruba), Financial Services (e.g. equipment leasing, asset management). HPE leverages digital twin technology through HPE GreenLake Flex Solutions, enhancing design and engineering workflows via an industrial metaverse powered by the NVIDIA Omniverse platform. This enables realtime anomaly detection, quality improvement, cost reduction, and faster time-to-market.
Hewlett Packard Galway Limited (HPGL) is the Irish wing of HPE, and HPE Labs (Ireland) is the research unit involved in this project. HPE Labs is the research wing of HPE with a focus on the key areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Data Center optimization, Photonics, Networking, Quantum Computing, System Architecture, Distributed Systems, Security and Sustainability. This project involves the AI/RL group at HPE labs, which researches digital twins, reinforcement learning, time series analysis, machine learning, and AI. We publish extensively in this area in top venues (ex: NeurIPS and AAAI), often focusing on Data Center and related resource optimization, and open source our approaches to foster industry and academic collaboration.
