The purpose is to build a 500 kW wave energy demonstrator for the North Sea, as a first very important step towards commercialisation of wave energy. The EUDP funds mainly cover the very extensive
The objective is to develop a prototype design of a wave power converter based on the Point absorber system AquaBuOY in cooperation between RAMBOLL and Aqua Energy.
Wave energy test is extended due to an unexpected stop caused by the sinking of the float (due to corrosion). The test is continued in order to obtain sufficient long period of performance data. The
