We offer expertise in the wind industry with experience at all scales of wind energy from micro turbines to offshore systems. As active members of the industry, we are represented on RenewableUK Standards Groups, IEC technical working groups and MCS working groups, developing standards and certification requirements for the industry.
Energy Technology Centre provides versatile facilities for the engineering development of key elements of marine power systems including mechanisms, flow systems and individual components. Hydraulic power packs with a range of actuators allow sinusoidal and profiled time histories to be created for reproducing typical wave motion. Accelerated life cycle testing and the ability to undertake component qualification helps to de-risk deployment of complete systems offshore.
Comprehensive development and test facilities for a range of thermal power and heat transfer systems are available at Energy Technology Centre.
