OREgaua is an event to take science to the streets with marine renewable energy

As every September, European cities are joining forces to hold Researchers’ Night, an event to take science to the streets. This year, TECNALIA is holding OREgaua to share science with everyone with marine renewable energy.

Experiments, monologues, games, ship visits and more

About the ORE4citizens project

This event is part of the ORE4citizens project, an alliance led by TECNALIA, UPV/EHU, Euskampus Fundazioa and BCAM Basque Center for Applied Mathematics to share science with the general public, raise awareness of the effects of climate change on the Basque coast and show the key role played by marine renewable energy in the fight against global warming.

The initiative also aims to highlight the global leadership of the Basque industry in the sector and the opportunity it offers society and the planet.
