Marine Energy Challenge
Who are we?
We are Stanford Marine Energy, a competitive engineering team representing Stanford in the DOE’s Marine Energy Collegiate Competition (MECC).
Through this competition, we've received funding from the DOE to identify and research a promising market within the blue economy, determine the end energy requirements of that market, and design and build a marine energy device to serve the market’s needs. We will design and build our device during the next few months and present our results at the competition in May 2025.
How to Join
Fill out this form or attend our weekly meetings! (Design workshops Mondays at 3:30, and general meetings Tuesdays at 5:00 in Old Union 122)

Anna Goldman
Anna is a senior studying civil and environmental engineering, with a focus in environmental fluid mechanics. She’s enthusiastic about finding synergies between natural and engineered systems to foster more resilient ecosystems and communities. In her free time, Anna can be found staring at rocks, looking for live music, enrolling in courses that will take her on field trips, and overcaffeinating.
Camden Burk
Camden is a senior studying Earth Systems, with a minor in Public Policy. He is generally passionate about clean energy development, but focuses on its intersection with conservation, environmental justice, and community benefits planning. Outside of the classroom, he can most often be found climbing trees, playing unnecessarily complex board games, practicing trumpet, or pretending to write.
Jaime Yu
Jaime is a sophomore studying Mechanical Engineering. He loves working on all things at the intersection of environment, engineering and ecosystems with a particular interest in marine-based solutions that work with the natural processes at play. Otherwise, you can find him in the bowels of triathlon, reading a book, sauntering about the mountains or climbing up a rock.
