Narec is a national centre for the UK dedicated to accelerating the deployment and grid integration of renewable energy and low carbon generation technologies, utilising wind, wave, tidal, solar PV and thermal power.
We work with global blue chip companies, SMEs, start-ups and university spin-outs to commercialise technologies which generate electricity and heat; can be deployed into the electrical network; or form part or all of a distributed energy system.
The Norwegian side of the North Sea will be collaborating with Narec and the North East to produce wind power during the foreseeable future. Investment in wind power in Norway will grow as the industry matures. Norway is mostly self-sufficient in renewables and may become a major exporter of wind generated electricity in the future. Narec hopes to play a major role in developing the renewable energy future between Norway and the UK
Narec Vision
Our vision is to be recognised world-wide as the UK's leading centre for advancing the development and integration of renewable energy through technology-led innovation. This will facilitate a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy security whilst minimising the costs to customers. In establishing this position, Narec will stimulate UK investment as companies and other organisations will be drawn in to take advantage of Narec's resources and expertise. By addressing these issues Narec's long term sustainability will be secured.
