This site-wide search returns results for all documents, events, metadata, and stories in Tethys, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "environment" finds "environmental"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys now features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) is a wind farm 27 miles off the coast of Virginia Beach. The pilot project consists of two 6 MW turbines for a total of 12 MW, which were subjected to intense environmental monitoring. The successive commercial-scale project will expand to include 176 turbines to generate a total of 2.6 GW and is expected to begin construction in 2024. The wind farm will…

To support the State of Washington’s marine spatial planning efforts, the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and Parametrix were asked to conduct a spatial analysis of basic siting factors to determine where marine renewable energy development may be feasible on the Washington coast. The scope of the study includes tidal, wave, and offshore wind power generating technologies. The…

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), under an interagency agreement with the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), is providing technical assistance to identify and delineate leasing areas for offshore wind energy development within the Atlantic Coast Wind Energy Areas (WEAs) established by BOEM. This report focuses on NREL's development and…

In the year of the UK’s presidency of the UN Climate Change Conference, COP26, huge momentum is growing towards focusing ambitions for the UK and globally to deliver net zero greenhouse gas emissions. The UK Climate Change Committee’s Sixth Carbon Budget [1] identifies a pathway for completely decarbonising electricity by 2035, despite electrification of the energy system as a whole requiring…

Stelmach et al.
While solar and wind energy continue to grow as significant sources of renewable energy, a global energy transition away from fossil fuels will require an expanding portfolio of generating resources. Marine renewable energy has the potential to contribute greatly in the coming decades, as the more predictable nature of wave energy can support the resiliency of the power grid and complement…

Hagen et al.
A key motivation for airborne wind energy is its potential to reduce the amount of material required for the generation of renewable energy. On the other hand, the materials used for airborne systems’ components are generally linked to higher environmental impacts. This study presents comparative life-cycle analyses for future multi-megawatt airborne wind energy systems and conventional wind…

Dahlgren et al.
After nearly 30 years of experience with offshore wind energy (OWE), the industry is moving past the initial learning phase and into large-scale development. One of the strongest motivations for OWE is that projects are large enough to replace fossil-fueled electricity production that we know is a primary contributor to the ongoing climate crisis. Environmental concerns are therefore also at…

Bender et al.
Anthropogenic activities and their influences on aquatic systems is an important topic, especially considering the growing interest in using the earth's resources in a sustainable way. One of those anthropogenic activities is the introduction of renewable technologies into the aquatic environment such as instream turbines. Environmental studies around those technologies are often still ongoing…

Over the past few years the increase in human population worldwide has changed the underwater soundscape. Loud, new, unfamiliar noises are being introduced to the environment, impacting many species of animals. This has particularly harmful effects on marine organisms that rely heavily on their sense of hearing, such as harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena). Harbour porpoises use…

Recognising the importance to society of an adequate and stable energy supply and that renewable energy sources can significantly contribute to achieving this, and aware that renewable power generation, especially from wind energy, large solar panel power stations and biomass production, is projected by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) to increase four- to six-fold by 2030,…
