Southeast National Marine Renewable Energy Center

As the third U.S. Department of Energy designated National Marine Energy Center, the Southeast National Marine Renewable Energy Center (SNMREC) seeks to advance the science, technology, economics, workforce and policy of recovering energy from the ocean, with special emphasis on those resources available to the southeastern US. With an initial focus on harnessing ocean currents and ocean thermal resources, SNMREC now partners with the private and public sectors to support all forms of hydrokinetic development. By continuing to lead the sector, SNMREC promotes economic development and energy independence for its service region and the nation.
