This video shows the design, development and sea trials of the succesful EU Framework 7 funded project CORES - New Components for Ocean Renewable Energy Systems. This project was coordinated by the Hydraulics and Maritime Research Centre in Cork and had 13 Partners from 7 EU countries, all of whom contributed to the final sucessful outcome. Within the partners was a unique mix of Industry and Academia.
