OFFSHORE RENEWABLE ENERGY CATAPULT CENTRE
We aim to make the ORE Catapult the world’s pre-eminent centre of expertise for rapid development and commercialisation of highly innovative technologies that will substantially reduce the cost of offshore renewable energy. This Centre will play a key role in bringing the vision of a successful UK offshore renewable energy sector into reality. The critical mass of renewables industry companies in Glasgow and its proximity to leading research capabilities will provide an ideal base from which the UK sectoral collaboration with be led.”
INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS The ORE Catapult will be headquartered in Scottish Enterprise’s Industry Engagement Building, which will sit side-by-side with the University’s new £89 million Technology and Innovation Centre (TIC) in the heart of the city. TIC has already attracted major international partners, including SSE, ScottishPower and the Weir Group, as well as financial backing from Scottish Enterprise and the Scottish Funding Council.
INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY ZONE The technology centres are at the heart of Scotland’s new International Technology and Renewable Energy Zone – a global economic hub to bring innovative businesses to the city.
Professor McDonald added: “The activities of the ORE Catapult will provide the foundation for a large, vibrant and dynamic offshore renewables industry that is a global leader and a significant contributor to the nation’s economic growth through the near and longer terms. This investment, sitting alongside the University’s Technology and Innovation Centre, will make us one of the largest concentrations of research, education and KE in power and energy technologies in the world.”
