The Lake Ontario Research Center at Oswego will also Engage in energy related research and education in areas that pertain to the Great Lakes. Expand the Energy Education Institute. Create an incubator environment for companies involved in the renewable energy industry for the Great Lakes, especially wind energy and hydrogen fuel technology. Lessons learned through these technologies will provide important templates for technology transfer to sites throughout the Great Lakes and generate manufacturing business opportunities.
