- Additional information
- Wave energy converters (WECs) are a promising future source of renewable energy. The research involved a collaboration between Universities of Bath and Swansea, and WEC developer Marine Power Systems Ltd (MPS). The project demonstrated cost savings compared to other WECs and led to further collaboration under the Wave Energy Scotland development programme (UOB_CS11_RMX, £45k) and was instrumental in enabling MPS (contact: Chief Engineer) to unlock further significant investment of >£12M to develop a full-scale device.
