Ocean Engineering: clean energy, internet and much more
Have you ever sent an email? Or bought something made in another country? Did you know they travelled through the ocean to get to you?
*99% of internet communications travel through underwater cables across our oceans.
*90% of global world trade - that is all the stuff we consume - is carried by ship across the oceans.
What about clean energy? Did you know our oceans can help provide that too? Offshore wind power offers the opportunity to produce clean electricity at a scale needed to help decarbonise our society and address climate change.
Want to find out more? Then come along and meet our Ocean Engineers to find out how the oceans influence and impact our everyday lives - and how our research is helping to decarbonise our society and economy to stop climate change!
