The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is one of the world\u2019s leading organisations which prepares and publishes International Standards. Martin Brown, General Manager of the new Aqualis Aberdeen office, is convenor for the PT20 committee which is developing a &#8216;New Outline Technical Specification providing Guidance for the Design and Analysis of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) systems.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5594 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/aqualisbraemar.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dublin-group-photo.jpg\" alt=\"Dublin group photo\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dublin-group-photo.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dublin-group-photo-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Dublin-group-photo-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Following on from Dublin Martin presented on the 7th of May at All Energy Conference in Glasgow on the new standard and on OTEC developments in general throughout the world. <a href=\"http:\/\/aqualisbraemar.com.gridhosted.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/all_energy_mgb_may_2015.pdf\">Click here to view the presentation from this event<\/a>. OTEC is a technology which can provide large scale 24 hours a day 365 days a year baseload electrical power and fresh water for island nations in the tropical oceans and for developed countries via floating systems positioned in international waters. Developments in deep water oil and gas floating production systems have meant that the technology required for floating OTEC systems is now lower risk and much more straight forward compared to the past. AqualisBraemar&#8217;s expertise in mooring design\/integrity, Naval Architecture design, transportation and installation services etc. are well placed to assist in the design and testing of future OTEC systems.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5597 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/aqualisbraemar.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/All-Energy-Martin-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/All-Energy-Martin-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/All-Energy-Martin-1-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abl-group.com\/abl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/All-Energy-Martin-1-768x409.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>An indication of the potential for OTEC is that after a 12 month audit led by the European Investment Bank, DCNS and Akuo Energy were awarded \u20ac72m under the European Commission NER300 programme for \u200btheir NEMO (New Energy for Martinique and Overseas) project for the development of an offshore pilot OTEC plant in Martinique in the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<p>For further information on the standard and OTEC in general please feel free to contact Martin Brown:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:martin.brown@aqualisbraemar.com\">Martin G.
