Competence Center for Marine Materials

SeaTwirl has a part in a project named CCMM

We are proud to announce that SeaTwirl has a part in a project named CCMM (Competence Center for Marine Materials), now approved by VINNOVA. The main goal of CCMM is to provide knowledge and in-depth research related to enhanced and new products/materials, materials that will endure the marine environment and meet new requirements for different offshore renewable energy technologies -wind, tidal, wave, solar etc.

We are happy to be a part of this very competent group and collaborate toward advancing materials and ocean science.

When Wind Power Meets Local Communities

Swedes are generally positive about wind power, but support decreases when wind turbines are located close to people’s homes. As many as 74 percent of the population are positive towards wind power as an energy source, while only 32 percent are positive towards having wind power close to their permanent home. This is where a large part of the conflict arises. The question is therefore not whether we should have wind power, but how and where it can be developed with as little impact as possible.
