Wind turbines and solar panels dot the landscape in many parts of Canada, each helping to reduce Canadas dependence on fossil fuels and move the nation to more environmentally friendly and sustainable power sources. Today, almost 17 percent of Canadas total primary energy supply comes from renewable resources an important contribution toward extending the planets life and reducing our impact on the environment as energy demand continues to rise. The National Research Council (NRC) is working to increase this percentage through R&D focused on mapping marine energy resources improving the commercial and technical performance of marine renewable energy systems emerging technologies for harvesting useful energy from ocean waves and water currents in both rivers and coastal waters.

Sometimes the only thing standing between an innovative product and its successful entry to market is the ability to scale-up production and meet demand. Such is the case with boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs), the strongest, lightest, most conductive and chemically resistant fibre known to exist.

With the rapid growth of oil and gas development off Canada's east coast, and as economic and political interests in the Arctic increase, the ability for seagoing vessels and offshore structures to operate safely in Canadian waters remains of critical importance. The use of predictive strategies continues to be a crucial tool in avoiding collisions and protecting existing structures in waterways saturated with icebergs, ice build-up and other formidable obstacles.

Military and civilian aircrew alike routinely fly long hours, often in an environment of relentless jolting and shaking that can cause fatigue and discomfort. The effects of this persistent vibration can not only jeopardize flight comfort and safety but can also cause long-term health issues such as chronic back and neck pain. Nowhere is this more apparent than for helicopter crew who are often weighed down by heavy gear and equipment.
