Hawaiʻi Marine Energy Center

The Hawaiʻi Marine Energy Center advances marine energy research, testing, and education to help transform ocean innovation into real-world solutions. Rooted in Hawaiʻi and serving as a national hub in the Pacific, HMEC supports the responsible development of marine energy technologies that strengthen energy resilience for island, coastal, and remote communities. Through partnership, technical excellence, and place-based knowledge, we work to harness the power of the ocean in service of a more sustainable energy future.
