OpportunityTitle: RFI: Marine and Hydrokinetic Metrics
Description: The Water Power Technology Office (WPTO), within the U.S. Department of Energy&#8217;s (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), is requesting feedback on Marine and Hydrokinetic (MHK) metrics in the U.S. for system and subsystem performance. Specifically, the WPTO is looking for feedback on (1) the performance metrics identified within the document titled &#8220;Existing Ocean Energy Performance Metrics&#8221; relating to performance in the U.S. marine resource, as well as any additional applications, assumptions, benefits, drawbacks, or other considerations for those metrics, (2) any performance metrics not captured within the &#8220;Existing Ocean Energy Performance Metrics&#8221; documents, (3) considerations for baseline reference values documenting the current state of the U.S. MHK industry identified by metric and resource type, and (4) feedback specifically on Technology Readiness Level (TRL) definitions as referenced in the document and as those TRL definitions relate to the U.S. MHK industry.
