The 2020 Marine Energy Collegiate Challenge teams will explore innovative marine-energy solutions to address power needs across the blue economy. Teams made up of students from diverse fields and one faculty member will identify a promising market within the blue economy and the best marine-energy application to address the unique needs of that market. With feedback from end users, teams will create a preliminary design of a marine energy-powered device to serve the market and end-user needs.
