With its proximity to proposed offshore wind farms and abundant wave and tidal resources, the University of Rhode Island provides an ideal setting for studying the social, environmental, and technical aspects of these emerging sectors.

Marine Affairs is an active participant in the university-wide interdisciplinary ocean renewable energy initiative.
