Renewable energy business WaveX has received a statement of feasibility from OWC Australia & New Zealand, a part of energy and marine consultancy ABL Group, for its wave-powered generator technology.

Swedish-Israeli wave energy developer Eco Wave Power has launched its first MW-scale wave energy project in Porto, Portugal.

Tidal energy could contribute to decarbonizing Alaska’s Railbelt by 2035 and facilitate the production of clean fuels like hydrogen, growing the state’s economy, a recent U.S. study has shown.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (U.S. DOE’s) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) has disclosed an intent to provide up to $112.5 million to advance the commercial readiness of wave energy technologies through open water testing and system validation.

Wave Energy Scotland (WES) has granted £400,000 (approximately $514k) to be shared between two projects in the second round of the Direct Generation Concept Design Competition.

According to PMR, the assembly would be completed this year, followed by reinstallation, and finally the export of clean energy to the Goto Islands, Japan.

The Marine Energy Council (MEC) welcomed the increase, which is expected to contract an additional 25 MW of tidal stream capacity to the UK’s deployment pipeline.

The trials, conducted from late March to late May, tested the system’s capabilities in real-sea conditions.

This partnership is set to support early site development, speeding up marine energy deployment and creating a pipeline of projects for future renewable auctions.

The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO) has revealed the 15 winning teams in Phase II of the American-Made Innovating Distributed Embedded Energy Prize (InDEEP).

CETO Wave Energy Ireland (CWEI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Carnegie Clean Energy, has secured funding to participate as an industry partner/wave energy technology representative in the Modular Electrical Generator PTO system for wave (MEGA WAVE PTO) project, funded by Horizon Europe.

EU-backed SafeWAVE project, short for Streamlining the Assessment of Environmental Effects of Wave Energy, has been prolonged until December 2024.

Besides dry testing at the site, Slow Mill Sustainable Power will also be setting up the WEC for offshore preparation.

Marine hydrokinetics pioneer Ocean Energy USA, a wholly owned subsidiary of Ocean Energy Group Ireland, has deployed what is said to be the world’s first electricity grid-scale wave energy device at the U.S. Navy’s test site in Hawaii. The 826-ton wave energy convertor buoy, the OE-35, was deployed
