LEANCON Wave Energy

LEANCON Wave Energy has devoloped a new Multi Absorbing Wave Energy Converter (MAWEC)  which differentiate from other known wave energy converters (WEC) in the world, as it uses the suck forces to be hold down. Hereby it can be made with low weight which reduces the material costs. 

The WEC is a off shore OWC type that  preferably uses a special designed displacement turbine as power take off (PTO), but a traditional air turbine can also be used.

Some of the key factors in the developement of this WEC has been:

By focusing on theese objectives it has been achieved to devolope a WEC with a low production cost of eletricity (0.06 €/kWh).

In September 2007 tests in real sea conditions started up.

Co-operate

The developement of this WEC has now reached a level where there is a need to co-operate with others. This could be :

This WEC project has till now been private financed and are now searching for investors and partners to speed up the further developement.

There is a PCT patent pending on this WEC.
