This document summarises the outcomes of the Ocean Energy Stage Gate Metrics Validation Workshop delivered by Wave Energy Scotland on behalf of and funded by the OCEANERA-NET. This event was attended by 38 stakeholders from the wave and tidal energy sector and was held in Edinburgh on 29th November 2017. Stakeholder groups represented were public funders, technology developers, academia, government bodies and test sites from eight different countries.
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.
Report prepared by Wave Energy Scotland (WES) to give a summary of the Knowledge Capture documents produced by Aquamarine Power Limited, which cover their learning and experiences during technology development.

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.
