EMEC is best known as the world’s leading facility for testing and validating wave and tidal energy devices in the sea. However our operations have developed significantly through the years as we’ve gained unprecedented experience in demonstrating ocean energy technologies, and providing technical and business support to our clients.

Today we’re also pioneering the development of a green hydrogen economy in Orkney, and have set up a hydrogen production plant onshore, next to the Fall of Warness substation. We’re now working on projects to support the development of floating offshore wind, hydrogen and wider clean energy systems. Click here to find out more about the projects we’re involved in.

We provide demonstration, technical and commercial support to five technology sectors: wave, tidal, floating offshore wind, hydrogen and energy systems.
