The U.S. allocates $112.5M for a new Oregon wave energy testing facility, aiming to harness ocean power.

The U.S. Department of Energy has allocated $112.5 million to advance wave energy technology through PacWave, a new testing facility off the coast of Oregon. PacWave, launching next summer, includes four test sites for wave energy converters that will harness ocean wave power for the grid. This project aims to make wave energy a viable and consistent renewable resource, potentially supplying over half of the country's energy needs.
