Abstract
The purpose of this document is to describe the methodology E2I EPRI will use to accomplish the conceptual level design of offshore wave power plants (both a 1,500 MWh per year pilot plant and a 300,000 MWh per year commercial plant) Depending on the selected wave energy conversion (WEC) device technology, the pilot plant might vary in size as individual units might yield more then 1,500 MWh per year.
Previously Published documents describe the methodology E2I EPRI will use to estimate the annual power production and the cost of the plant and the cost of the electricity produced.
