PRIMaRE - Events
Renewable Futures 2010
Tuesday 23rd November to Wednesday 24th November 2010
PRIMaRE will be exhibiting at Renewable Futures 2010.
Renewable Futures 2010 ‘Scale up delivery’ will focus on the lessons learnt from successful renewable energy schemes in the south west and across the region and how we can use these to scale up delivery to meet the huge growth needed. It will also focus on maintaining momentum towards achieving 2020 targets.

3rd International Wave Energy Summit 2010 Wednesday 23rd June to Thursday 24th June 2010 Sea Works Exhibition - PRIMaRE boat launch Renewable Energy Planning Guidance at the Eden Project We will be exhibiting on stand A44 at the All-Energy 2010 Conference next week, if you are around come over and have a chat with us about all the latest developments at PRIMaRE http://www.all-energy.co.uk/Conference.h Events to explain support and funding available for innovators in 2010 South West companies will be able to learn how to access over £1 billion of public funding for innovation at a series of forthcoming Innovation Forum events being held across the region in 2010. Delegates will be able to educate themselves on what business support is available and suitable for their business all in one day by attending our workshop sessions and exhibition. Organisations in attendance will be: Grant for R&D, TSB Collaborative Research, FP7, Eurostars, Enterprise Europe Network, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships, R&D Tax Credits, TSB Small Business Research Initiative, South West Design Programme, UK Intellectual Property Office, South West Angel Investors Network, Business Link and South West Universities As well as hearing inspirational case studies and presentations about the key support available to companies, delegates will also benefit from one-to-one meetings. The event could be the first step in helping get new ideas and innovations off the drawing board and into production. Robin Gallimore, Chair of the South West Science and Industry Council, said: “Innovation Forums are one of the ways we are trying to help companies to innovate their way to success. The programmes on offer allow businesses to research and develop new technologies and processes which will increase productivity and profit. In these challenging times, innovation continues to be essential for the region’s economy and will be a key element of our path to recovery.” Innovation Forums will be held at the following locations between 9:30am and 4pm. Please click on the appropriate link to register. Further details of the events will be sent to you nearer the event in question. Bournemouth 24th June (in collaboration with the Bournemouth Uni Festival of ideas & Innovation) If you would like to see information from past Innovation Forum events please visit the Science South West website. If you have any questions regarding any of the events please call 01275 370849. PRIMaRE Annual Research Conference 2010 Wednesday 31st March 2010 (09.00 - 17.00) University of Exeter, Cornwall Campus, Penryn, Cornwall, TR10 9EZ Chapel Lecture Theatre - Ample parking available Join academics and stakeholders to learn how PRIMaRE is supporting academic excellence in Marine Renewables. Ifyou would like further information or to register for this this event, please contact Hélène Bryant with your completed registration form at events@primare.org or telephone 01752 586005. PowerPoint Presentations Society of Maritime Industries 'SEA' opportunities for enterprise Wednesday 7th October 2009 (12.00 - 18.00) Roland Levinsky Building, The University of Plymouth Video Presentations PowerPoint Presentations South West Moorings Test Facility Launched 2nd July 2009 National Maritime Museum, Falmouth The South Western Mooring Tests Facility (SWMTF) is a unique installation funded by the South West RDA and ERDF. The facility aims to significantly aid the research and development of suitable mooring configurations for wave energy devices in support of wave energy device developers and the South West RDA’s Wave Hub project. The test facility will be deployed in Falmouth Bay and for the first time will allow researchers to understand the dynamic behaviour of a moored structure in realistic sea environment at large scale. If you would like further information about this event or PRIMaRE, please contact enquiries@primare.orgor telephone 0800 052 5600. Business Briefing: Marine Renewable Energy in the South West Tuesday 9th September 2008 This event provides an opportunity for individuals and companies in Cornwall and the South West of England to discover more about emerging marine renewable technologies and explore the potential for their involvement in the industry. The Wave Hub development provides a unique opportunity for the South West to become a major centre for development of marine technology, including the industrial and employment opportunities that go with it. In parallel with the Wave Hub, PRIMaRE seeks to deepen the academic and industrial knowledge base in the region through research and collaboration with industrial actors. The aim of this day event is to provide an initial briefing to companies in the South West about this rapidly emerging industry and the business opportunities it will represent. The event will focus on the development issues for wave and tidal energy. Emphasis will be given to presenting the research and development capacity within PRIMaRE that will contribute to opportunities for collaboration with companies. Topics to be covered include: resource assessment; numerical modelling; moorings and foundations; power technology and electrical infrastructure; testing; environmental assessment. PRIMaRE comprises experts across the range of disciplines relevant to the burgeoning marine energy sector and there will be ample opportunities to discuss your interests with relevant representatives throughout the day. MREnergy in the South West Event Wednesday 16th July 2008 This one day event is promoted by The Peninsula Research Institute in Marine Renewable Energy (PRIM aRE). PRIMaRE is a joint activity of the Universities of Plymouth and Exeter to establish a robust, interdisciplinary knowledge base, underpinning and supporting the emerging marine energy sector across the region. This includes the proposed Wave Hub installation in Cornwall, as well as offshore wind, tidal stream, tidal barrage and marine biofuel technologies. Professor Gerhard Masselink BSc (Utrecht) MSc (Utrecht) PhD (Sydney)- Professor of Coastal Geomorphology Inaugural Lecture Tidal Effects on Beaches - a Field Experimenters Perspective Thursday 22nd May 2008 at 6.00pm Devonport Lecture Theatre, Portland Square, Plymouth Campus It is often considered that ocean waves are the dominant agent in shaping sand and gravel beaches. On most beaches in the world, however, and especially in the UK, the spring tidal range is several times greater than the average wave height. Such large tides exert a significant influence on beach morphology by affecting surf zone currents and nearshore sediment transport processes. Drawing on 15 years of field experiments on beaches, Professor Masselink outlines in this lecture the role of tides on beaches. Some tidal effects are merely the result of the shifting of the water level up and down the beach due to the tide and are easily understood and quantified. Other effects, however, are unique to tidal beaches and their discovery, elucidation and quantification require dedicated field measurements. Current numerical models of nearshore processes and beach morphological change have attained a level of sophistication and spatial resolution that cannot be attained by field observations; nevertheless, it will be argued that field work remains the key research activity to help us understand beach processes and morphology.
