Neptune Wave Power, LLC (‘NWP’), worked with OWET, the Northwest National Marine Renewable
Energy Center (‘NNMREC’) and Oregon State University (O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory) to
build and test a 1/10 scale model wave energy conversion (‘WEC’) device. This model is based upon
NWP patented technology and was the latest...
This report is designed to supplement the Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) Utility Market Initiative (UMI) report released in December of 2009 and other work already undertaken by OWET. The UMI report addresses several early-‐stage characteristics of the ocean energy industry and how those characteristics relate to bridging the gap...
The Incentivizing Ocean Energy project, completed July 2011 by Robert K. Harmon, studies methods of bridging the gap between the cost of ocean energy and the price it can command in the marketplace, especially for early-stage technologies. Robert K. Harmon details strategies to reduce the cost of ocean energy, gain...
OWET convened the second annual OWET Developersʼ Summit on August 2, 2011 in
Portland, Oregon.
The Summit brought together participants, both new and those who had attended the first
OWET Developersʼ Summit 2010, to review the Blueprint for Ocean Energy Development
2010-2015 and to discuss: the progress made in developing...
Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) is a nonprofit public-private partnership funded by the Oregon Innovation Council. Its mission is to support the responsible development of wave energy in Oregon. OWET emphasizes an inclusive, collaborative model to ensure that Oregon maintains its competitive advantage and maximizes the economic development potential of...
Geo-Marine, Inc. (GMI) conducted an offshore avian radar baseline study for Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) for a wave energy study located northwest of Reedsport, Oregon from 25 August through 29 October 2010. The study was conducted from shore with GMI’s Mobile Avian Radar System (MARS®). The MARS® was equipped...

Recent warnings from scientists suggest there is limited time to enact policies to avert wide‐ranging ecological and social damage from climate change. In the United States, discussions about comprehensive national policies to avert climate change have begun, with “Green New Deal” proposals and climate plans put forth by members of...
Development of wave and offshore wind-based marine renewable energy is anticipated on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) off Oregon and much of the Pacific Northwest in the coming decade. Multiple issues related to environmental considerations and information needs remain for these emerging industries. The Oregon Marine Renewable Energy Environmental Science...
