The Energy Research Institute @ Nanyang Technological University (ERI@N) together with the OES in collaboration with Ocean Pixel Pte Ltd and Envirotek and ERI@N’s regional partner, the ASEAN Centre for Energy through the Southeast Asian Collaboration for Ocean Renewable Energy (SEACORE) organized a two-day workshop on “Ocean Energy in Islandic Conditions” last 8 - 9 March 2017 in Nanyang Executive Centre, Nanyang Technological University.
The two-day workshop facilitated the discussions of the various stakeholders of the ocean renewable energy field specifically those situated in islands or remote coastal areas of the region.
The workshop “Ocean Energy in Insular Conditions” looks at the opportunities and barriers to local adoption of ocean renewable energy in islands and remote coastal areas of the Asian region from the perspectives of various stakeholders and the possible solutions to address the challenges. It also tackles the crucial roles of the different stakeholders (academia, policy-makers, industry and end-users) that each has to play to contribute to the uptake of ocean renewable energy in Southeast Asia.
