Wave energy plant

To capture the forces of nature and convert it to energy can be a challenging task. A typical system will consist of many interacting components. The performance and capacity of such a system is very much dependent on the layout and local wave conditions. In addition, currents and wind contributes to challenge the structural integrity of the energy plant. With AquaSim, you can study and visualize your system from an early design stage. Providing valuable data for optimization and further development.
