The annual IMEchE Renewable Strategy Engineering Competition for 2016 is now open for submissions. This competition is open to students and graduate engineers of all ages - Undergraduate students (BEng, BSc, MEng), Postgraduates (MSc, MRes, PhD) and industry-based engineers.
The integration of distributed and non-dispatchable renewable energy into the wider energy system (electricity, heat/cold and transport) poses significant challenges for the design and operation of the energy system. For example, due to the increasing fraction of non-dispatchable generation it becomes more important to provide novel mechanisms to balance supply and demand.
Dr Duncan Sutherland, who has recently completed his PhD in the Institute for Energy Systems (IES), has been awarded a Worshipful Company of Scientific Instrument Makers (WCSIM) Postgraduate Prize.
At the International Conference on Ocean Energy (ICOE) 2016 conference one of our IDCORE Engineering Doctorate Students, Anthony Gray, won first prize in the ICOE Poster competition. ICOE 2016 is attended by wave and tidal industry leaders and associations as well as students and academi
