Proposal ID: 1138868PI: Larry P AtkinsonThis award will support participant travel to a workshop titled "Offshore Renewable Energy - Information Needs for Resource Assessment and Design Conditions". The workshop will be held on June 23-24, 2011 in Washington DC, and will be hosted by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).Intellectual Merit Offshore wind and ocean energy is an underdeveloped renewable energy resource. To develop that resource, research will be required to better understand both the resource (wind, current, wave) and the effect of those resources the on structures that are created to harvest these resources. The workshop will address the fundamental and applied research needs for renewable energy technologies that are likely to be deployed offshore, especially wind and marine hydrokinetic (MHK) energy. Specific areas for which fundamental information is needed and for which gaps will be identified include forecasting (for operations), energy projections (including resource assessment), technology design and validation, facility design, operations planning/site safety, and performance monitoring.Broader ImpactsOffshore renewable energy is seen as a significant but untapped resource that has the potential to reduce the reliance of the United States on fossil fuels for the generation of electricity. This proposal will provide travel support to enable the participation of graduate students in a unique workshop that focuses on offshore renewable energy. This workshop will also foster collaborations between academia, industry, and government, particularly the U.S. DOE and the National Science Foundation (NSF).

该奖项将支持参与者前往一个名为“海上可再生能源-资源评估和设计条件的信息需求”的研讨会。研讨会将于2011年6月23日至24日在华盛顿特区举行，由美国能源部（DOE）主办。海上风能和海洋能是一种欠发达的可再生能源。为了开发这一资源，将需要进行研究，以更好地了解资源（风、流、波）以及这些资源对为获取这些资源而建造的结构的影响。讲习班将讨论可能部署在海上的可再生能源技术的基础和应用研究需求，特别是风能和海洋水动力（MHK）能源。需要基本信息和确定差距的具体领域包括预测（操作）、能源预测（包括资源评估）、技术设计和验证、设施设计、操作规划/现场安全以及性能监测。更广泛的影响海上可再生能源被视为一种重要但尚未开发的资源，它有可能减少美国对化石燃料发电的依赖。该提案将提供旅费支持，使研究生能够参加一个独特的研讨会，重点关注海上可再生能源。本次研讨会还将促进学术界、工业界和政府之间的合作，特别是美国能源部和国家科学基金会（NSF）之间的合作。
