CorPower Ocean Takes Charge of $35M Wave Energy Project off UK
driving economic growth and job creation. With the right support and a clear route to market, developers and investors will have the certainty they need to deliver the nation’s first commercial wave-energy arrays, while ensuring the UK can capitalize on this golden opportunity,” said Anders Jansson, Head of Business Development at CorPower Ocean.CorPower noted research indicating that wave energy, under a high-growth scenario supported by a modernized UK supply chain, could deliver more than $40 billion (£30 billion) in gross value added to the economy and support tens of thousands

the Billia Croo project. The Marine Energy Council (MEC) is calling for the Government to contract its first wave energy project in this year’s auction, either via a £5 million wave energy ringfence or setting a clear capacity ambition supported by an alternative mechanism,” said Anders Jansson, Head of Business Development at CorPower.“We’re pleased to welcome CorPower Ocean back to EMEC, having first hosted them at our Scapa Flow test site in 2018. It’s fantastic to see the structured development they’ve pursued – progressing from smaller-scale testing
Renewable Energy: Security for Nations Dependent on Imports
by Anders Jansson, CEO, Minesto The need for a secure and reliable energy supply is a seldom mentioned but very important driver for many nations moving towards clean and renewable energy supply. Paradoxically, the very factors that have made many nations dependent on imported energy, like being surrounded by water, can work to their benefit since many island nations have great potential for marine energy. Those of us who remember the oil crises in the 70s, when OPEC strangled oil supply to the Western world and drastically raised the price of oil, do so with a shiver. Price controls, rationing

or ocean current. Deep Green produces 100% renewable tidal energy. New simulator enables more accurate estimates of the cost of energy “The new simulator is a very valuable tool for us as a supplement to real life sea tests since it speeds up the development of Deep Green,” said Anders Jansson, CEO, Minesto. “We can easily scale and change different variables in the simulator to predict and optimize Deep Green’s power production performance with great accuracy. It is of great commercial value to be able to estimate the cost of energy more precisely at a specific location
