Mocean Energy - Model Blue X -Wave Energy Converter

In January 2019, Wave Energy Scotland selected Mocean’s design as one of the industry’s most promising concepts – awarding  Mocean with £3.3 million. The support from Wave Energy Scotland enabled Mocean to develop the Blue X – a prototype model for extensive testing in real sea conditions. In spring 2021, Mocean shipped the Blue X to the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney, the world’s first and leading open-sea test facility for wave and tidal energy devices. Installed at EMEC’s Scapa Flow test site, the Blue X is generating power – a major Mocean milestone – as well as tremendous data on machine performance and operation seen over the summer months.
