About the TEAMER Program:
TEAMER accelerates the viability of marine energy by providing access to the nation’s best facilities and expertise in order to solve challenges, build knowledge, foster innovation and drive commercialization.
The energy stored in the motion of waves and currents has the potential to provide a vast and resilient source of energy to meet a significant portion of society’s needs. To reach this potential and move marine energy technologies closer to market, researchers and developers must first refine the most promising technologies and advance their progression toward achieving commercial viability, all while navigating development and testing barriers along the way.
The Testing Expertise and Access for Marine Energy Research (TEAMER™) program accelerates that process through annual open funding calls to support developers seeking access to the nation’s best facilities and expertise. TEAMER plans to distribute more than $25 million through these periodic competitive opportunities (known as Requests for Technical Support, RFTSs) to support Marine Energy testing and development projects.
