Energy research centre to make waves
The agencies involved in the Maritime and Energy Research Centre (MERC) said it will help scale-up Ireland’s renewable energy sector and attract international device developers from all over the world to work here.
The world-class facility, which is being developed under a partnership involving Cork Institute of Technology’s National Maritime College of Ireland (NMCI), University College Cork (UCC) and the Irish Naval Service, will be built next to the NMCI campus in Ringaskiddy.
