The University of Massachusetts (UMass) is developing a 2-body wave energy converter (WEC) device that is converting mechanical power into electricity using a mechanical motion rectifier that allows t
This is the LCOE analysis spreadsheet and content model for the heaving point absorber buoy developed for controls purposes. The cost assessment was done on a wave-farm of 100-units.
The core objectives of this project is to improve the power capture of three different wave energy conversion (WEC) devices by more than 50% using an advanced control system and validate the attained
This is the post-access report for a Teamer-funded effort to optimize the SurgeWEC device, a near-shore pivoting flap wave energy conversion device used to desalinate water. Parametrically driven cost
