Big News!!

​For more than a century, hydropower has been among the nation’s largest source of renewable energy.

​And although renewable energy is a growing interest among college students, many young professionals may be unaware of the opportunities to innovate—and find careers in—the evolving hydropower industry.

​If you are an undergraduate or graduate student interested in a career in hydropower, download your application today!

The 2023 HCC engages undergraduate and graduate students to address complex hydropower challenges and propel us towards a clean energy future. The HCC is managed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) on behalf of EERE’s Water Power Technologies Office and in partnership with Hydropower Foundation.
Marine energy has the potential to provide reliable power to the blue economy, but further work is needed to optimize designs
and reduce costs.
The competition’s objectives are to bring together diverse groups of students from multiple disciplines to explore opportunities for marine energy technologies to benefit other existing maritime industries via real-world concept development experiences.

​If you are an undergraduate or graduate student interested in a career in marine energy, what are you waiting for? Apply now!
