Building Innovative Green Hydrogen systems in an Isolated Territory: a pilot for Europe (BIG HIT)

Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Apr 30, 2021,

BIG HIT will create a replicable hydrogen territory in Orkney (Scotland) by implementing a fully integrated model of hydrogen production, storage, transportation and utilisation for heat, power and mobility. BIG HIT will absorb curtailed energy from two wind turbines and tidal turbines on the islands of Eday and Shapinsay, and use 1.5MW of PEM electrolysis to convert it into ~50 t pa of hydrogen. ...

Clean energy from ocean waves (CEFOW)

Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2020,

The most advanced wave power demonstrations today have showed the feasibility of power generation with single device deployments and MW-scale performance within several testing periods of several years. The next step beyond this is to deploy multiple wave energy converters in MW-scale with improved power generation capability and demonstrate that they are able to survive rough sea conditions over ...

Advanced Braking Module with Cyclic Energy Recovery System (CERS) for enhanced reliability and performance of Wave Energy Converters (WaveBoost)

Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2019,

WaveBoost aims at providing a step-change improvement to the reliability and performance of PTOs (Power-Take-Offs), by developing and validating an innovative braking module with a Cyclic Energy Recovery System (CERS). While built and tested on the platform of the existing CorPower technology, the CERS braking module can be integrated in many types of Wave Energy Converters (WECs). Especially for ...

Demonstration of Integrated Solution for offshore Tocardo Tidal power plants. (InToTidal)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Jun 30, 2018,

Tocardo International has in the past ten years developed a technology for tidal turbines for generating tidal power from flowing water. For offshore application, integrated tidal system are needed that require low upfront investments (CAPEX), have low maintenance and operation costs (OPEX) and produce large amount of kWh. Tocardo International has developed an solution which fulfils these requir ...

Marine Renewables Infrastructure Network for Emerging Energy Technologies (MARINET)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Offshore Renewable Conversion systems are mostly at the pre-commercial stage of development. They comprise wave energy and tidal stream converters as well as offshore wind turbines for electrical generation. These devices require research to be undertaken at a series of scales along the path to commercialization. Each technology type is currently at a different stage of development but each one al ...
