Wave energy operates in one of the most unpredictable environments in renewable energy. Wave conditions change constantly, and the forces acting on a wave energy converter cannot always be measured directly in real time. Within the INFINITY project, advanced control...
Project partner Maynooth University hosted the 10th annual Centre for Ocean Energy Research (COER) Workshop on Friday, 23 January 2026. The event was sponsored by The Marine Institute and Research Ireland’s Centre for Climate, Energy and the Marine...
Real-time implementation, validation and physical constraints often determine whether a wave energy control concept will hold outside the laboratory. Here, we explain how. To better understand what separates simulation from operational reality, we sat down with John...
The project is nearing its first year, and the work is progressing according to plan. Over the past months, efforts have focused on design, coordination and preparations for the next phase. In 2026, the project will take a clear step forward as prototypes begin to be...
