SELKIE Project – Meet the Expert Series

Testing & Validation (Ireland)

Experts: LIR, SmartBay and AMETS test sites

The Selkie Project is organising a series of events focused on providing business support for companies looking to diversify in to the marine energy sector. These events will give your company the opportunity to learn more about key themes from experts in the sector to help in your endeavours to enter and work in this innovative and growing industry. It will also give you the opportunity to network and meet with other companies.

Ireland’s ocean energy test and validation infrastructure will be presented in this webinar. Learn about the LIR National Ocean Test Facility in Cork, Ireland where state of the art wave tanks and electrical rigs allow developers access to scaled testing in a controlled environment. Hear about the SmartBay test site, Ireland’s intermediary scale open sea MRE test facility which presents an ideal opportunity for device developers looking to bridge the gap between test tanks and the open-sea for their technology validation. Find out about Ireland’s development of the full scale test site Atlantic Marine Energy Test Site (AMETS), an energetic site where developers can test at full scale ahead of their final stages of pre-commercial development. Join us on the 30th September to learn about Ireland’s ocean energy expertise.
