Objectives Mission : To accelerate the development, testing, commercialisation and deployment of offshore renewable energy technologies, enabling a vibrant sector driven by research and innovation, collaboration and enhanced knowledge, that generates affordable, low carbon power and considerable UK economic benefit.
Abstract The Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult is the UK's flagship technology innovation and research centre for offshore wind, wave and tidal energy. ORE Catapult is an independent, not-for-profit business that exists to accelerate the development of offshore wind, wave and tidal technologies. Our team of over 120 people has extensive technical and research capabilities, industry experience and track record. Through world-class testing and research programmes, we work for industry, academia and government to improve technology reliability and enhance knowledge, directly impacting upon the cost of offshore renewable energy.
