Innovation & Investment
Initiatives to unite aquaculture and offshore wind farms are popping up globally but they face technical, cost and environmental challenges.
Intelligence
The New England fishing industry is worried that the approval process for a massive offshore wind farm off the coast of Rhode Island is moving too fast.

Lightsource bp and Green Rock Energy are collocating a solar energy project at an aquaculture facility in Taiwan.
Innovation & Investment
A new report says ocean renewable energy has the potential to power offshore aquaculture and decrease the environmental impact of operations.
Responsibility
Prof. Boyd discusses energy use in aeration for aquaculture production systems, along with rates, types of aerators, motors and electricity generation.
Responsibility
While intensive shrimp farms in Australia and elsewhere are sensitive to rising energy prices, global intensification and farming innovations have led to significant improvements in shrimp farm energy efficiency. Important among the changes was the global switch to zero-exchange production of white shrimp.
Responsibility
Readily available energy has supported expanded seafood production. Feed production is the major energy-consuming aspect of finfish and crustacean culture.
Responsibility
Researchers are evaluating whether off-the-shelf flat-plate solar collectors can maintain stable recirculating aquaculture system temperatures.
