The 826-ton wave energy convertor buoy, the OE-35, was deployed on the windward coast of the Hawaiian Island of Oahu.
The device is also said to be robust enough to withstand the huge forces that waves can exert, together with the corrosive effect of saltwater on moving parts.
According to Ocean Energy USA, the utility-scale wave energy device measures 125 by 59 feet, has a draft of over 30 feet, and a potential rated capacity of up to 1.25 megawatts in electrical power production.It is located north of Mōkapu Peninsula, at the WETS site in Kaneohe Bay, having been towed there from Honolulu on Friday, July 19.
“This internationally significant project couldn’t come online at a more critical time for the US and Ireland as the World needs to accelerate the pace of decarbonization with new and innovative technologies.
The only moving parts in the device sit well above the waves, making them much less prone to damage and corrosion.
