Abstract
This document describes the results of the system level design, performance and cost study for both a feasibility demonstration pilot plant and a commercial size offshore wave power plant installed off the coast of Massachusetts. For purposes of this point design study, the Ocean Power Delivery (OPD) Pelamis wave energy conversion (WEC) device and an area for deployment off the coast at Cape Cod was selected. The study was carried out using the methodology and standards established in the Design Methodology Report (Reference 1), the Power Production Performance Methodology Report (Reference 2) and the Cost Estimate and Economics Assessment Methodology Report (Reference 3).
System Level Design, Performance and Costs-Massachusetts State Offshore Wave Power Plant is located in Massachusetts, United States of America.
