The Economist Intelligence Unit has released a new report, Accelerating Energy Innovation for the Blue Economy, examining the demand for energy within the blue economy, enablers driving past innovations, the impacts of those innovations, and where marine energy innovation currently stands.
Commissioned by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), the energy needs of different ocean economy sectors are assessed, inclusive of the past sail-to-steam transition, improved energy storage mechanisms and the development of offshore wind. Case studies are highlighted throughout the report to illustrate the shift in marine technology and discuss resource mobilization needs.
