AB - This document is part of a set of 5 reports Wave Energy Scotland (WES) has commissioned from the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC), through engagement with supply chain companies, to create a set of Wave Energy Converter (WEC) development guidance documents which draw upon the lessons learnt from real sea deployments of marine renewables at the Orkney-based test site.Four guidance documents have been produced, covering Compliance, Handling, Installation, and Operations and Maintenance. These provide an insight into what technology developers should be considering at early stages of development, notably in areas of offshore operations, HSE, logistics, installation support, and regulatory compliance, and aim to aid WEC developers in making informed design decisions across a range of maturity levels and technology types.This guidance document highlights the issues to be considered under the theme of Installation – specifically the impact that planning of resources such as vessels, people and the design have on the installation of the WEC, the moorings and/or foundations. Although the action of installation is specific to later stage developments, preparation and risk mitigation for open water installation will be covered within earlier activities.
