Columbia Power, along with Sweden-based CorPower, topped a Simply Blue Energy (SBE) review of available near-commercial wave energy technology suppliers, which was part-financed by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI).
The review, dubbed Horizon Scanning and undertaken by Wave Venture on behalf of SBE, focused on identifying and reviewing the most promising current and forthcoming wave energy technologies.
The goal of the project was to determine which wave energy technology companies are on a path to commercial readiness and how close each is to achieving market entry, according to SBE.
