Main presentation from the 2016 Wave Energy Scotland Conference, describing the Wave Energy Scotland programme, objectives, innovation calls and funded technologies.
The documents provide guidance for projects entering at, and transitioning between, Stages 1, 2 and 3 of the PTO programme.
These documents provide guidance for Stage 1 of the Novel WEC programme, outlining the overall competition guidance, supplementary guidance on the wave tank testing elements, the sea state conditions to be used for the WES Mandatory Performance Tank Testing, and the requirements for Third Party Verification of tank testing.
These documents provide guidance for Stage 2 of the Novel WEC programme, outlining the scope of requirements (suggested activities and expected outcomes) and a summary of the process and conditions to be used for the standardised sea states during the WES Novel WEC Stage 2 mandatory performance tank testing.
This presentation was given by WES at their side event during EWTEC 2017, and showcases programme developments, international collaborations, recently announced activities, and background to tank testing requirements.
This presentation was given by WES-funded contractors in attendence at EWTEC 2017 at the WES side event, and showcases their respective project progress to date.
This presentation was given jointly by WES and the ETP (Energy Technology Partnership) at the WES side event during EWTEC 2017, and gives background on ETP, opportunities for funding and how it it interfaces with WES.
This report presents the process and outputs from a workshop held to identify and agree a measurable set of suitable metrics with minimum numerical thresholds, which can support a list of wave energy converter system requirements.
This report summarises the outcomes of the workshop including: A description of the format of the workshop and its breakout sessions, the discussions which took place, and concludes with the metrics and success thresholds agreed.
An overview from WES of the overall programme and planned activities for 2018.
Details of the WES Programme including the overall progress of projects, results of recent landscaping studies and discussion of additional work WES are involved in through international partners.
Marine renewable energy development and deployment is a priority for many countries around the world. These presentations give a wider perspective on the wave energy sector and how to plan for financing.
Presentations from each of the lead contractors for each of the WES programme projects, informing of their progress up to December 2018.
