IDEA–IRL

This project will fund Ireland’s contribution to the IEA Wind Task 49 as well as facilitate research into FOWA opportunities specific to Ireland.

HAWK

HAWK will accelerate development and deployment in the Irish marketplace of competitive energy-related products, processes and systems by introducing an open-source database effectively giving original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) a head-start in composite airframe development.

Sustainable development of Ireland’s offshore renewable energy sector: Wave, tidal and offshore wind

This project aims to bring to market a reliable, sustainable marine energy turbine through the application of recycled carbon fibre (rCF) material and novel technologies over the complete life cycle of the product.

TIDAL-GES

The Tidal Energy project 'TIDAL-GES' at University of Galway is focusing on solutions to secure transition to affordable and clean energy that also enhances the health and resilience of communities, wildlife and environment.
