COE værktøj for bølgeenergianlæg

Consulting Engineer Julia F. Chozas (contact person at coe@juliafchozas.com) together with Aalborg University and Energinet.dk have released a freely available online spreadsheet to evaluate the Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE) for wave energy projects. The open-access tool calculates the LCOE based on the power production of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) at a particular location. Production data may derive from laboratory testing, numerical modelling or from sea trials.
The scope of the COE Calculation Tool is to estimate the performance, costs and economic feasibility of the demonstration machines that are currently being developed.

The tool has been developed as a transparent and simple model that evaluates the WEC’s economic feasibility in a range of locations while scaling the WEC’s features to the selected site.
