The Wave Experiment Consortium (WEC)

Space Science Reviews, 1997
In order to get the maximum scientific return from available resources, the wave experimenters on Cluster established the Wave Experiment Consortium (WEC). The WEC’s scientific objectives are described, together with its capability to achieve them in the course of the mission.

ANN Approach to WECS Power Forecast

2005 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation, 2006
In this work-in-progress the problem with the future integration of large quantity of wind generators in the Portuguese electric grid is presented. A method based in artificial neural networks (ANN) is used to predict the average hourly wind speed. The work starts by choosing the patterns set length, the ANN structure and the learning method.

Full-Scale WECs

2007
In this chapter, some of the concepts that have reached the full-scale stage are de-scribed in detail. Other examples could be given, but the analysis was limited to four main technologies: OWC (Oscillating Water Column), AWS (Archimedes Wave Swing), Pelamis and Wave Dragon presented in 7.1 to 7.4.

Charts for economic evaluation of WECS

Solar & Wind Technology, 1988
Abstract This paper provides charts that can be used conveniently for quick assessment of economic feasibility of WECS under different sets of variables. These are: total capital cost (TCC), capacity factor (CF), wind turbine life time (N), operation and maintenance costs (OMC) and discount rate (DR).

Generation Characteristic of WEC for Buoy

Journal of the Korean Society of Marine Engineering, 2008
Marine facilities like buoy, lighthouse are operated with stand alone power supply system. This power system can consist of a stand-alone type power system such as PV(Photovoltaic) system, wave system or hybrid system which is not cooperated with a commercial power system.
