Abstract

This document describes ocean testing of the Northwest Energy Innovations (NWEI) prototype Azura wave energy converter at the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) 30-meter Wave Energy Test Site (WETS 30m Site) in Hawai‘i. The WETS 30m site is located at the Kaneohe Marine Corps Base Hawai‘i (MCBH) on the northeast coast of the island of O‘ahu. The Azura prototype test has been a cooperative effort of NWEI, NAVFAC, University of Hawaii’s Hawaii National Marine Renewable Energy Center (HINMREC), and the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The Azura was deployed on May 27-30, 2015 for a one year period. This report describes the results of this testing through March 2016.
