Fully submerged wave energy converter achieving high uptime offshore utility-scale deployments.
CalWave Power Technologies develops the xWave, a fully submerged wave energy converter designed for utility-scale offshore deployments. The system achieved 99 percent uptime over ten months of testing offshore San Diego and is targeting the PacWave and EMEC test sites for further validation.
xWave competes with other submerged and point-absorber wave energy systems by focusing on high reliability and minimal surface exposure. The technology is intended for integration into multi-unit arrays for commercial wave energy farms, directly competing with CorPower Ocean and other offshore WEC developers in the utility-scale clean power market.
