European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference

About EWTEC

The European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference (EWTEC) series are international, technical and scientific conferences, focussing on renewable marine energy – wave and tidal – which are derived from the water column in the ocean. EWTEC is well established among renewable energy conferences showing considerable growth since its launch in 1993 (see Conferences). Since its inception, EWTEC has provided global focus for all activities in wave and tidal energy conversion technologies, research, development and demonstration. EWTEC is widely respected for its commitment to high quality of academic and industrial contributions, which are peer reviewed, delivered at the conference and published in the proceedings. Highly impactful outputs from the conference proceedings are normally selected to be published in the EWTEC’s International Marine Energy Journal.

Marine energy technologies and systems are progressing well with pathways to commercialisation identified. Hence, EWTEC provides a biennial forum for those at the forefront of research and technology development in the marine energy sector where they meet, interact, present their latest knowledge, debate new ideas and issues pertinent to wave and tidal energy conversion. EWTEC thus provides attendees with an unparalleled forum for knowledge transfer and debate at the cutting edge of marine renewable energy technology.

EWTEC is governed by an Executive Board and Technical Committee, with members elected from the top researchers in the field. These committees provide the necessary management and guidance to support the continued pre-eminent global pedagogic and scholarly standing of the EWTEC conference series.
