Australian Ocean Renewable Energy Symposium (AORES) 2026

The third Australian Ocean Renewable Energy Symposium (AORES) brings together industry, researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to foster collaboration and support the growth of the Australian ocean renewable energy sector, spanning wave, tidal, river and ocean currents, OTEC, and hybrid systems. The symposium will feature keynote presentations from leading international and industry experts, providing a global context for Australian developments.

Key themes include:

  • technology development and performance
  • hydrodynamics, loads and survivability
  • arrays, systems and grid integration
  • resource assessment and site characterisation
  • environmental and social impacts
  • deployment, operations and economics
  • policy, regulation and markets

AORES provides a valuable networking opportunity for PhD students in ocean renewable energy to connect with fellow researchers, industry representatives, and the broader Australian ocean energy community.
