Carnegie Selected for US TEAMER Technical Support
• Carnegie Clean Energy selected for technical support valued at $194k USD (approx. $270k
AUD) under the U.S. Testing Expertise and Access to Marine Energy Research (TEAMER)
program.
• The "Development of a Finfish Array with Distributed WEC Power Integration" project will be
delivered in collaboration with Kelson Marine (USA).
• Activities will focus on integrating Carnegie’s MoorPower technology with offshore fish pens
to displace diesel generation.
• The project will deliver a specialised numerical model, enhancing Carnegie’s capability to
design integrated energy solutions for the Blue Economy.
Carnegie Clean Energy (ASX: CCE) (“Carnegie” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has been
selected to proceed to the final stage of technical support under the US Testing Expertise and Access
to Marine Energy Research (TEAMER) program. The Project, titled ‘Development of a Finfish Array
with Distributed WEC Power Integration’, brings together Carnegie’s industry-leading wave energy
expertise with the advanced numerical modelling capabilities of Kelson Marine, a US-based specialist
in dynamic ocean structures.
Visualisation of Carnegie’s MoorPower technology integrated onto a moored vessel. This project represents an
adaptation of the technology for distributed use within aquaculture fish pen settings.
Offshore finfish aquaculture offers a sustainable path for global protein production; however, the
sector remains heavily reliant on diesel generation. Carnegie developed the MoorPower technology
with support from the Blue Economy CRC to address this challenge, providing a wave energy solution
for aquaculture customers. The initial application for MoorPower has focused on offshore moored
vessels such as feed barges. This project will expand the addressable market further by exploring direct
integration with fish pens for wave energy in aquaculture applications.
A numerical model developed in the project will provide insight into fish pen array dynamics and
enable work to optimise power production while also meeting operational requirements. The project
outcomes will support Carnegie’s ability to design efficient clean energy solutions for aquaculture
partners globally.

The TEAMER program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, provides marine energy
developers with access to world leading facilities and expertise. Under this award, approximately
$193,783 USD (approx. $270k AUD) in funding is provided directly to Kelson Marine to conduct high-
level research and modelling in collaboration with Carnegie. Carnegie acts as the Technical Support
Recipient (TSR), guiding the research to build intellectual value. This system allows Carnegie to
leverage world-class US infrastructure and expertise with little capital outlay.
Carnegie CEO Jonathan Fievez commented:
"Collaborating with Kelson Marine through the TEAMER programme is an exciting step in our
expansion into the aquaculture sector. This work allows us to apply high-fidelity numerical modelling
to the unique challenges of integrated fish pen arrays. By optimising how our MoorPower technology
interacts with these flexible structures, we are enhancing both the survivability and the commercial
application of wave energy as an energy solution for a variety of offshore operations."
The project is currently in the formal Test Plan development phase. Following final approval by the
TEAMER Technical Board expected later this year, Kelson Marine will commence the project activities.
