Waves4Power

Waves4Power is a Swedish-based developer of buoy-based Offshore Wave Energy Converter (OWEC) systems.[1] There are plans to install a demonstration plant in 2015 at the Runde Environmental Centre in Norway. There they will be testing the WaveEL, an offshore buoy. This will be connected via sub-sea cable to the shore based power grid.[2][3][4]

In 2020 the company received a grant from Ocean Demo enabling it to access the power-connected test berths from EMEC for three years. In addition Waves4Power will be able to sell and deliver electricity to the power grid in Scotland according to the rules set out in a power Purchase agreement. During the three year period, Waves4Power will receive up to GBP 300,000 every year for three years. [5]
