OWET, with its partner organization, the Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center (NNMREC), has an international reputation for championing creative policies and initiatives, new technologies, and programs that emphasize streamlining conditions to getting projects in the water. These credentials, along with Oregon’s natural advantages, have positioned the state as a global leader in the drive to commercialize ocean renewable energy.
