FloWave has been at the forefront of ocean energy research, from the fundamental principles of fluid dynamics to the intricate pre-deployment assessments of wave and tidal energy devices. As the first circular combined wave and current facility in the world, we will reflect on our groundbreaking research impact and offer insights into the future of the marine energy sector.

Our seminars will feature a diverse lineup of speakers including leading academics, pioneering technology developers, researchers, and the students who are the future of ocean energy. Each will share insights into their work, highlighting how FloWave's unique capabilities have been instrumental in their discoveries.

The day will culminate in a live demonstration of FloWave's unparalleled abilities, offering a look at its cutting-edge technology. Following this showcase, we invite you to join us for a reception where there will be an opportunity to network, exchange ideas and be inspired by achievements and the exciting potential offered at FloWave.
