2nd Annual Marine Energy Technology Symposium (METS)

The 2nd Annual Marine Energy Technology Symposium (METS) will be held on April 15-17 in Seattle, WA in conjunction with the Global Marine Renewable Energy Conference (GMREC).

 

METS provides a venue where technical experts can publish and present wave and water current energy research that helps accelerate the pace of technology development. Holding METS in conjunction with GMREC provides researchers with the invaluable opportunity to interact with public and private industry stakeholders.

 

 

Last year’s inaugural METS was a great success and consisted of over 40 technical presentations and 30 technical papers. All accepted papers were published in open-access format and are available online.
