The Wave & Tidal Knowledge Network facilitates the exchange of data and knowledge across the wave and tidal energy technologies industry, supporting researchers and developers from around the world.
Managed by the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult, the Knowledge Network is a web-based system that facilitates data exchange in the marine energy industries. It is a searchable database containing a wide range of information available to download free of charge and also provides links to information held elsewhere, which may be available on a commercial basis. The Knowledge Network contains more than 2000 resources on a range of topics relevant to wave and tidal energy. The resources are of a variety of types, including reports and datasets. The site was launched in April 2013 and is regularly updated as additional resources become available.
