IMPACT at Global Ocean Energy Conference
From 18–20 October, the IMPACT project attended the global ocean energy conference ICOE-OEE, where they hosted a side event together with fellow European wave energy project, VALID.
IMPACT is a collaborative research and innovation project which aims to develop and demonstrate a next-generation testing approach for Wave Energy Converters (WECs).
The proposed 250kW Dual Hardware-In-the-Loop (DHIL) testing platform is based on a technology which expands the capabilities of the already established Hardware-In-the-Loop technique.
IMPACT features five project partners from four European countries. The project is coordinated by VGA, Srl (Italy), with the following project partners: Yavin Four Consultants (Portugal), SINTEF Energy Research (Norway), SINTEF Ocean (Norway) and University College Cork (Ireland).
From 18–20 October, the IMPACT project attended the global ocean energy conference ICOE-OEE, where they hosted a side event together with fellow European wave energy project, VALID.
Join IMPACT and VALID as they discuss the benefits of hybrid testing in ocean energy, creating a methodology framework for hybrid testing.
On 22 and 23 June 2022, the IMPACT project successfully held its fourth project meeting in Trondheim, Norway.
SINTEF Energy Research’s Paula Garcia Rosa – who led Task 3.2 in IMPACT – will present at the MORE/COER Wave Energy Workshop in Turin on 29 April 2022.
