The Coordinator

The paper discusses the lessons learned from the European Funded Framework 7 Research project Components for Ocean Renewable Energy Systems (CORES) which developed and trialed new components and systems for ocean energy devices. The authors are the coordinator and project manager so the paper will give this overview of the project. This will include detail of the work packages, major achievements, significant impacts, summary results and outcomes of the sea trials.

And Control

In a previous paper by the authors [1] a procedure is given for the optimum design of single mass, anchored wave energy generators. The anchoring problem is generally regarded as one of the major obstacles of developing practical systems due to the high cost of implementation. This paper presents a procedure for the design of supporting platforms for wave generators which are essentially self-positioned and require minimum anchoring. The optimum design and control for such systems is given for a selected ocean condition. The study shows that an unanchored platform in an optimally designed two-mass system can provide appropriate support for the wave generator without any significant loss of conversion efficiency.
