The report was produced in August 2015 and reviews the experience of AWS Ocean Energy Ltd from May 2004 to the time of writing. It also references the earlier experiences gained from the work by Teamwork Technology (Netherlands) in the initial development of the Archimedes Waveswing™ in the period from 1994 to 2004.
The report is intended to give an overview of the development experience and the key decisions and to provide a signpost to more detailed technical information so that the industry may be aware of the existence of the work of AWS Ocean Energy Ltd and therefore avoid repetition and promote future collaboration.
Note that additional reports, documents and data files referenced here may not be currently available.
