Elizabeth Libby Murphy has been awarded the Compton Mentor Fellowship
Ms. Murphy will be working on a project for the year entitled: Tidal Power Developing a Community Vision for a Sustainable Northeast
For my Mentor Fellowship I would like to conduct an independent technical study of the tidal power capacity of the Northeast coastline, coordinate community interest and produce my findings through a creative website. Libby plans to conduct a detailed evaluation of the entire Northeast coastline, from New Jersey to Maine and hopes that this year will leave her with a valuable understanding of the industry technology, policy and economics The goal is to work directly with organizations and the community to create a common goal of technology and resource development to ultimately create regional sustainability. Roger Bason, President of Natural Currents LLC will serve as her mentor. More information about the Compton Mentor fellowship.
