Description:

Abstract:
NNMREC’s ocean test site is one square nautical mile and ranges in depth from 45 – 55m. It has a gently sloping soft, sandy bottom. Significant wave heights (SWH) average 1 - 2.5m during summer months at 6 - 9 second energy periods. During winter months these increase to SWH averaging 2 - 5m at 8 - 12 second energy periods, with maximum significant wave heights of 7 - 14m.
Purpose:
The Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center (NNMREC) at Oregon State University is supporting the responsible development of the wave energy industry. In addition to the technological aspects of the industry NNMREC is working to study the potential socioeconomic, environmental and ecological impacts of this industry. Our world class researchers and supporting facilities offer one stop support to developers, and a trusted voice for all stakeholders.
