BILLING CODE 6820–KF–P 

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy 

Offshore Renewable Energy; Public 

Meeting on Information Needs for 

Resource Assessment and Design 

Conditions 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy (DOE). 

ACTION: Notice of public meeting. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces a 

public meeting for interested parties to 

provide DOE information on existing 

needs for acquiring meteorological and 

oceanographic information to support 

cost-effective deployment of offshore 

renewable energy plants, particularly 

wind and marine hydrokinetic (MHK) 

technologies. 

DATES: The meeting will be held 

Thursday, June 23, 2011, from 8:30 a.m. 

to 5:30 p.m., and Friday, June 24, 2011, 

8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. 

ADDRESSES: Hyatt Regency Crystal City, 

2799 Jefferson Davis Hwy., Arlington, 

VA 22202. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Stan 

Calvert at stan.calvert@ee.doe.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

purpose of the meeting is for DOE to 

obtain input regarding the development 

of accurate meteorological and 

oceanographic information for 

evaluating the energy potential, 

economic viability, and engineering 

requirements of offshore project sites. 

The meeting is an opportunity for 

participants to provide, based on their 

individual experience, individual 

information and facts regarding this 

topic. It is not the object of this session 

to obtain any group position or 

consensus. Rather, the Department is 

seeking as many recommendations as 

possible from all individuals at this 

meeting. 

The public meeting will consist of an 

initial plenary session in which invited 

speakers will survey information 

availability and needs for various 

applications related to offshore 

renewable energy. For the remainder of 

the meeting, breakout groups will be 

used to provide participants an 

opportunity to present to DOE 

information on the specified areas 

regarding existing gaps in observations 

and computational products. These 

groups will be an opportunity to 

provide comment on information needs 

for the following applications: 

1. Forecasting 

Initialize, constrain, and improve 

appropriate forecast models addressing 

periods of hours to days ahead for 

winds, waves, and currents. 

2. Energy Projections/Performance 

Monitoring 

Estimate energy to be produced by an 

offshore renewable energy plant. Once 

plants are in place, information would 

also be required to evaluate the plants 

actual production and determine causes 

for changes in its performance. 

3. Technology Design and Validation 

Design and validate energy devices for 

the marine environment that would 

predictably withstand physical loads on 

energy devices in the marine 

environment while operating at 

optimum efficiency. 

4. Facility Design 

Effectively design offshore energy 

plants as a whole, including designs 

that would account for interactions 

among individual devices and for siting 

issues. 

5. Operations Planning/Site Safety 

Effectively schedule and execute 

O&M activities, including safe facility 

access and response to extreme events. 

The meeting is intended to hear from 

experts involved in planning, 

deployment, operation, and regulation 

of offshore wind and marine 

hydrokinetic energy, experts involved in 

meteorological and oceanic disciplines 

relevant to offshore energy, as well as 

the interested public. However, the 

meeting will not focus on 

environmental impact or management 

issues, which are being addressed by 

separate efforts. While participation is 

open to all interested parties, the 

breakout structure of the meeting will 

limit its overall size to about 100 

participants. When the meeting is fully 

subscribed, registration will be closed.
