WaveRoller deployment

Ocean waves are the single largest, untapped source of renewable energy, with a total potential of 32 000 TWh/year around the world. AW-Energy have developed the WaveRoller technology to capture and convert this resource into electricity.

The WaveRoller device is assembled at port and towed to the installation site. During the deployment the foundation is filled with water and the device is placed on the sea bottom.

The devices are deployed at depths of 15 to 25 metres at a near-shore areas in locations exposed to the open ocean. The energy is captured from the wave column with a vertical panel and the movement of the panel is translated to a hydraulic system which powers an electrical generator.
