AW-Energy has successfully completed the three-year WaveFarm project funded by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund, marking a significant milestone in advancing the WaveRoller wave energy converter for sustainable and commercially viable wave energy solutions. Wave energy is recognized as a valuable renewable power source that could contribute up to 10% of the EU’s energy by 2050. The project leveraged insights from previous deployments to create a reliable product family, positioning it as a versatile solution for global energy needs.
The WaveFarm project focused on practical solutions for developers, owners, and operators of wave farm assets, leading to innovations that enhance energy capture, increase efficiency, extend operational lifetime, and streamline manufacturing processes. AW-Energy’s CEO, Christopher Ridgewell, emphasizes the team’s commitment to incorporating their deployment experience into their products to make wave energy more accessible. The article also mentions the latest issue of Energy Global magazine, which covers topics such as battery storage, renewables in Europe, electrical infrastructure, turbine monitoring, blade monitoring, battery technology, and coatings.
