Texas A&M researchers are developing an ocean renewable energy station that could combine wind, wave, current and solar energy methods on a floating offshore platform.
It's the kind of issue that researchers at the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station's Smart Grid Center aim to prevent in the future by finding solutions for a more resilient power system.
A three-year, $1.5 million grant from the Department of Energy will allow the Texas A&M team to study materials that can store and release heat on demand.
