The initiative aims to investigate wave power harnessing using a new type of compact device with improved control technology, and as a result, design an offshore farm based on this technology.
CorPower, a specialist in wave energy converters, will design the device, while
Iberdrola Ingeniería will be in charge of developing the offshore farm, and
WavEc will provide analysis and validation support during the various stages.
HiWave has a budget of €15 million and will be completed in 2016.
