TEAMER: Initial Optimization of a Vessel-mounted Removable Current Energy Converter
This project focuses on developing a numerical tool to estimate the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for vessel-mounted hydrokinetic turbines. By leveraging open-source software and public-domain data, the tool evaluates energy capture and costs for deploying turbines on vessels in tidal energy-rich locations. The goal is to identify viable early-stage markets and optimize turbine designs for efficient energy generation in remote coastal communities.
