Dassault Systemes 3DEXPERIENCE Lab — A Virtual Incubator Cutting Down On Costs, Time, & Carbon…
Eco rockets, mobility electric chairs, 3D foot simulation, and more, are possible in a virtual lab that cuts down on development time, lowers carbon footprint, and saves on prototyping. This is the 3DEXPERIENCE Lab from Dassault Systemes. So far, the results have been very positive with less waste, less pollution, and a quicker development timeframe.
Tidal Power — GE & Others Looking To Harness The Power Of The Moon
Tidal power, or, to put it another way, the power of the moon, is certainly a powerful energy source. The tidal fluctuations caused by the movement of the massive body of the moon is worth tapping, right? Many have of course tried — and are currently trying — but the effective … [continued]
US Taps Into 1400 Terawatt Hours Of Clean Ocean Power
As the US offshore wind power industry slowly (very slowly) cranks up to speed, let’s not forget that US coastal waters also represent a huge, as-yet-untapped energy resource in the form of waves, tides and currents. The Department of Energy estimates the total could come up to 1400 terawatt hours … [continued]

New Tethys Database Offers Guidance For Responsible Ocean Energy Development
The fruit of an international collaboration, the Tethys database and report should prove a boon to policy makers, as well as marine and ocean energy researchers and project developers.
Study Says Tidal Energy Can Meet 20% of UK Electricity Needs
Tidal power is always pretty impressive to understand, given the sheer scale on which the power is generated. Imagine a wind turbine turned upside down and dunked in some of the roughest seas and you begin to imagine just how tricky but beneficial tidal power can be. And according to … [continued]
