EuropeWave is an innovative R&D programme for wave energy technology, combining almost €20 million of national, regional and EU funding to drive a competitive Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) programme. Phase 1 of the EuropeWave PCP programme has been successfully completed and the next phase – Phase 2 – will focus on improving the design and the modelling of the wave energy devices.
This side event will feature the five projects selected to enter the next phase of the programme. The successful developers will showcase their project work, lessons learnt during Phase 1, and highlight their milestones to achieve in the next phase.
