The Ocean Renewable Energy Group (OREG) conference May 13-14 is expected to bring delegates from across Canada, the U.S., and Britain and Scotland.
OREG members come from industry, academia and government, and will examine the region’s experience to date with tidal and in-stream energy in the Bay of Fundy region, Atlantic Canada and the northeastern U.S.
The open house, which runs from 7 to 9 p.m., will briefly discuss the regional electricity system and the role of tidal electricity, Fundy tidal projects, and Fundy tidal power in the world of ocean energy development.
OREG, which is based in British Columbia, was formed to ensure Canada is a leader in providing ocean energy solutions to a world market.
The organization holds two major conferences each year, one in western Canada and one in the east.
For further information, contact Terry Thibodeau, local coordinator of the OREG conference, and economic development officer with the Annapolis Digby Economic Development Agency at 638-8967.
