Lettenmaier et al.
This paper describes ocean testing of the half-scale Wave Energy Technology-New Zealand (WET-NZ) prototype wave energy converter (WEC) using the Ocean Sentinel instrumentation buoy during a 6-week deployment period in August‐October 2012. These tests were conducted by the Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center (NNMREC) at its Pacific Ocean test site off the coast of Newport, Oregon…

Aquamarine Power Ltd
The experiences and lessons gained on the Oyster 1 project led Aquamarine Power to make some fundamental changes to the design philosophy to improve access and maintenance for Oyster 800. This package of work highlights the lessons learnt on the Oyster 1 project, and documents how these areas were improved for Oyster 800. The report also highlights where the changes made were effective and…

Aquamarine Power Ltd
Throughout the development of the Oyster Technology, Aquamarine Power suffered from mixed experiences of the supply chain and poor component supply. Many of the components were purchased on the understanding that they were fit for purpose in subsea marine environments, and a number of these were not bespoke and may be considered by other wave developers.
Aquamarine Power often had to…

Aquamarine Power Ltd
Oxygen, biological activities, pollution, temperature, salinity, suspended sediments and velocity are the known major factors which affect the corrosion behaviour of materials submerged in sea water.
In this report Aquamarine Power documented the lessons learnt in design through the use of standard off-the-shelf components and materials, and the effect of material grades and…

Aquamarine Power Ltd
Through the successful execution of two full scale device installations (Oyster 1 and Oyster 800) and consecutive product improvement initiatives, Aquamarine Power gained a wealth of knowledge on numerous aspects of offshore operations including offshore planning, supply chain, vessel capabilities and weather limitations. Offshore operations are a common challenge shared by all developers, and…

In spring 2022 R/V Russell Davis Light was moored in Agate Pass, Washington, to perform the first saltwater test of a university-developed tidal turbine designed for sustained deployment as a bottom lander to power oceanographic sensors. The system, as deployed, was self-contained in that all system components associated with a hypothetical bottom-lander configuration were present. Potential…

Torre et al.
The marine energy potential in the United States is twice the current total national electricity consumption. Generally, it has been cost-prohibitive to take advantage of this tremendous resource. We are developing and launching a framework to analyze the potential revenue streams for marine energy to participate in existing electricity markets. This framework will provide wave energy and…
