Big things are happening in the world of remote wave energy control! The HAPiWEC project — our mission to make control design for wave energy converters faster, smarter, and more accessible — has reached some exciting new milestones. Whether you’ve followed us from the start or are just tuning in,…
Dr Adam Stock, Dr Peter McCallum and Dr Alexandra Price have received funding for a new project, “Accelerating Impact of Wave Energy Control” (AIM-WEC), which will use some of the software tools developed in HAPiWEC to inform new training and outreach materials for renewable energy professionals, MSc students and high…
Marking a major milestone for the project, the prototype system of the OSPREY-I (Open System-wide Prototyping for Renewable Energy Yield Improvement) was deployed in the FloWave basin. The dual motor power take off system, designed and constructed by the University of Edinburgh team was coupled to the power electronics from…
Last year Dr Adam Stock moved across to Heriot-Watt University to take on a role as Assistant Professor. This has led to a new opportunity for a Post Doctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to join Adam as part of the HAPiWEC team at Heriot-Watt. The PDRA will help to develop and…
Welcome to the web page for the EPSRC funded project “Holistic Advanced Prototyping and Interfacing for Wave Energy Coverters” or HAPiWEC. The project is a collaboration between the Universities of Strathclyde and Edinburgh. This website will be updated in due course!
