Renewable Energies Crash Course

The aim of the Renewable Energies Crash Course was to advance the exposure of the emerging marine energy sector to those working in parallel or similar work streams in order to build the awareness and knowledge of this sector and ultimately to ensure that the skills requirements for this growing sector are met.

The specific purpose of this Pilot Experience was to instruct participants in the fundamental principles of the marine energy sector including technical, financial, business and environmental aspects within a European context. There is a great opportunity for Europe to be at the forefront of this growing industry, and in order to do so, there is a requirement for greater knowledge on the mechanisms by which successful marine energy projects are built. The course feeds into Continuous Professional Development (CPD) for individuals who are working within the maritime sector but are not well educated in the marine energy sector.
