The INdustrialization setup of a FLoating Offshore Wind turbine (INFLOW) project participates to the development of an innovative solution for the offshore wind market. The main role of the project will be to demonstrate the cost competitiveness of the solution and to bridge the gap in between the development and industrialization phases of the technology. The development started with the validati ...

No attempt to harvest energy from waves has resulted in an economically viable and competitive technology. Many projects stopped and investors have become sceptical of wave power. Currently the cost per watt of usable wave energy is high, due to a focus on energy conversion methods and efficiency, rather than on mooring and grid connection, accounting for more than 90% expenditure.Wavepiston is a ...
