Lessons Learned from Wave Energy Deployments

The demonstration of ocean energy devices in real sea conditions for long periods of time is an essential step to commercialization. It demonstrates cost-effectiveness, reduces risks and attracts investors for future commercial projects.

Several wave energy developers are now installing and demonstrating their scale or full-scale devices in European waters. These first-of-a-kind deployments generate valuable information and lessons that will be applied to the next generation of devices and the first pilot farms.

In a webinar on Dec. 14, 2022, at 2 p.m. UTC, you will hear about real sea experiences from three wave energy developers. Mocean, AWS and CorPower Ocean will share what worked — and what didn’t — in their recent deployments. Register here.

The webinar is hosted by the European Technology and Innovation Platform for Ocean Energy and the Interreg North-West Europe’s ocean energy demonstration project.
