ORPC celebrates marine energy's role in the clean energy transition on National Hydropower Day. This year's #HydroDay comes as the $1 billion Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act has just been introduced in Congress, legislation that has the potential to position the United States as the market leader in #marineenergy. A form of hydro or waterpower, marine energy harnesses the power of free-flowing rivers, tides, waves and ocean currents to generate clean energy for both on- and off-grid use.
