In this edition of the ECOP Wednesdays event series, hosted by the EMB Young Ambassadors and the EMB Secretariat for the EMB ECOP network, Daniel Clemente, a Post-Doc at the University of Porto and CIIMAR, Portugal, will speak about "Is Wave Energy a Solution for Making Seawater Desalination More Sustainable? Techno-economic Expectations from the Portuguese Context".
Daniel Clemente is a Post-Doc at the University of Porto and CIIMAR (Portugal), whose background is Civil Engineering - Hydraulics, Water Resources and Environment. He has been studying wave energy converters (WECs) through physics-driven and data-driven methods, since his M.Sc. proof-of-concept of the E-Motions device. Daniel also studies potential applications and synergies of WECs, such as offshore aquaculture, triboelectric nanogenerators, desalination, green hydrogen and coastal protection. He has partaken in numerous international projects and scientific expeditions, and he is a member of CIIMAR's Scientific Committee, the European Marine Board’s ECOP, of APRH, an INOREan, and Vice-President of IAHR YPN Portugal.
In this talk, he will refer to work published here.
