“Wave Energy & Coastal Impacts Experiment”

Due to popular demand of this hands-on school incursion program, the team at the UWA-Albany Wave Energy Research Centre has designed this new classroom resource pack with embedded video material to reach students of all ages across the country. What is Ocean Renewable Energy, and how can we harness it? Why do we need to understand coastal processes to find the right spot for wave energy technology? And how will Climate Change impact our coastlines? Instructions to BYO wave tank included – but optional.
