Project Details
Description
Wavepiston has developed a unique, groundbreaking wave energy technology that can deliver both energy and desalinated water, but costs are still not competitive. The consortium of Wavepiston, Technical University of Denmark and Aalborg University, together with key suppliers in the value chain, will redesign key subcomponents of the Wavepiston technology to reduce weight and increase durability to reduce CAPEX and OPEX, and increase efficiency of the energy conversion for higher annual energy production. This will ensure a competitive LCOE right after the finalization of the project.
