<h2> Introduction </h2>

<p>iGEM Groningen 2015 wants to harness the energy of salinity, often called ‘Blue Energy’. 
    Blue Energy uses ion exchange membranes to separate the sodium and chloride found in sea water. These ion exchange membranes are expensive and unreliable. We want to use bacteria to create a living membrane that can repair itself. For more information contact contact@igemgroningen.com.

<h2> Support us </h2> 
The University of Groningen has given us large well-equiped labaratorium and a nice office, but we still need to purchase supplies and specialised scientific equipment. We are sponsored by several university institutes such as the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials as several coorperate sponsors and public sector sponsors. If you can support our project, please contact us at contact@igemgroningen.com. The university of Groningen is also running a crowdfunding campaign for us at <a href="http://studenten.rugsteunt.nl/projecten/igem-groningen-blauwe-energie" link>http://studenten.rugsteunt.nl</a> if you wish to donate privately.

<h4> Sidenote </h4>
<p>Wetsus, a Dutch Institute for Water Technology Research is constructing a blue energy test plant at the afsluitdijk, where the fresh water of the Ijsselmeer and the salt water of the Waddenzee are easily combined. Blue energy has no waste products. It is estimated that it could supply 7% of the world energy need. </p>

<h4> Editing your wiki </h4>
<p>On this page you can document your project, introduce your team members, document your progress and share your iGEM experience with the rest of the world! </p> 
<p> <a href="https://2015.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Team:Groningen&action=edit"> Click here to edit this page! </a></p>
<p>See tips on how to edit your wiki on the <a href="https://2015.igem.org/TemplatesforTeams_Code_Documentation">Template Documentation</a> page.</p> 


<h4>Templates </h4>
<p> This year we have created templates for teams to use freely. More information on how to use and edit the templates can be found on the 
<a href="https://2015.igem.org/TemplatesforTeams_Code_Documentation">Template Documentation </a> page.</p> 


<h4>Tips</h4>
<p>This wiki will be your team’s first interaction with the rest of the world, so here are a few tips to help you get started: </p>
<ul>
<li>State your accomplishments! Tell people what you have achieved from the start. </li>
<li>Be clear about what you are doing and how you plan to do this.</li>
<li>You have a global audience! Consider the different backgrounds that your users come from.</li>
<li>Make sure information is easy to find; nothing should be more than 3 clicks away.  </li>
<li>Avoid using very small fonts and low contrast colors; information should be easy to read.  </li>
<li>Start documenting your project as early as possible; don’t leave anything to the last minute before the Wiki Freeze. For a complete list of deadlines visit the <a href="https://2015.igem.org/Calendar_of_Events">iGEM 2015 calendar</a> </li>
<li>Have lots of fun! </li>
</ul>

<h4> Uploading pictures and files </h4>
<p> You can upload your pictures and files to the iGEM 2015 server. Remember to keep all your pictures and files within your team's namespace or at least include your team's name in the file name. <br />
When you upload, set the "Destination Filename" to <code>Team:YourOfficialTeamName/NameOfFile.jpg</code>. (If you don't do this, someone else might upload a different file with the same "Destination Filename", and your file would be erased!)</p>
