Efficiently unlocking full-scale WEC dynamics for industry cost reduction

该项目将通过将学术界的领先专业知识与行业的尖端技术和全面数据相结合来降低海浪能源的成本，以推动海洋力量对波能转换器的表示方式在行业模型中的表现。这些模型对于设计和控制下一代波能转换器至关重要，这种转换器的运动比以往任何时候都要大。经过仔细测试的模型将导致对发电量和负荷的更好估计，这将压低波能的成本，并使其能够大规模利用。利益的广泛交流和新知识的分享将加快澳大利亚海洋能源的商业化进程，并为满足我们未来的能源需求铺平道路。

This project will reduce the cost of ocean wave energy, by uniting leading expertise from academia with cutting-edge know-how and full-scale data from industry to advance the way oceanic forces on wave energy converters are represented in industry models. These models are critical for designing and controlling the next generation of wave energy converters, which have larger motions than ever before. Carefully tested models will lead to better estimates of power production and loads, which will drive down the cost of wave energy and enable its large-scale utilisation. Broad communication of benefits and sharing of new knowledge will accelerate commercialisation of ocean energy in Australia and pave the way to meeting our future energy needs.
