The CorPower Wave Energy Converter (WEC) is a cutting-edge solution designed to harness the power of ocean waves and convert it into clean electricity. The C4 Commercial-Scale Device features innovative technology that allows for efficient energy capture and high durability, making it a sustainable choice for clean energy generation.

At the core of the C4 device is the WaveSpring mechanism, which optimizes energy capture in regular wave conditions and can be detuned during storms to enhance durability. This, combined with an advanced phase-control system, ensures that the device can adapt to varying wave conditions while maintaining optimal performance.

The buoyant 9 m-diameter, 19 m-tall device is anchored to the seabed using the UMACK anchoring system and utilizes a gearbox-based power take-off to generate up to 300–350 kW of electricity. The C4 unit has already demonstrated its capabilities by exporting electricity to the Portuguese grid at Aguçadoura, showcasing its resilience in extreme wave conditions.

Furthermore, the modular design of the CorPower WEC allows for scalability into multi-unit arrays, known as CorPacks, providing a flexible and customizable solution for different energy needs. This technology offers a cost-effective and bankable option for wave energy generation, with the potential to capture up to five times more energy per tonne than other wave technologies.

By combining efficiency, durability, and scalability, the CorPower WEC is paving the way for sustainable energy generation and grid stability on a global scale.
