Project and generator specifications and initial prototype test data for flap-type wave energy converters (WEC)

In 2014, open water testing revealed that sediment scour around and under the device was significant and likely interrupted operations. To explore methods to mitigate this phenomenon, M3 developed a number of alternate concepts as detailed in concept sketches. This submission incl...

Columbia Power LCOE (levelized cost of energy) Model for the Stingray H1 at the DOE Reference Site of Humboldt, CA. The model is integrated with and reports LCOE from DOE Cost Breakdown Structure

Summary of numerical survivability modeling method for the baseline APEX geometry.

Projected LCOE model based on information gained during project performance.

Experimental data from the wave tank test of the Advanced control systems developed by NWEI for the Azura. Summary data is included utilizing the WEC Lab Testing Content Model v2.1. All raw and processed experimental data files are also included. The test plan and test report are ...

The overarching project objective is to demonstrate the feasibility of using an innovative PowerTake-Off (PTO) Module in Columbia Power's utility-scale wave energy converter (WEC). The PTO Module uniquely combines a large-diameter, direct-drive, rotary permanent magnet generator; ...

This submission includes the wave tank testing data used to validate the controls optimization efforts of a heaving 1-DoF buoy.

Data files for the NWEI Azura grid-connected deployment at the 30-meter berth of the US Navys Wave Energy Test Site (WETS 30m Site) at the Kaneohe Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH) on the windward (northeast) coast of the island of Oahu, HI. See general documentation describing spe...
