Project

Accelerating the digital innovation in the PtX energy sector and its related sectors requires considering all stakeholders in the development of digital ecosystem solutions for efficient sector coupling in PtX value chains.
The project will investigate the potential and possibilities of purchasing electricity from large-scale offshore wind and energy islands for use in a regional ecosystem with sector coupling solutions, PtX production and infrastructure. The project will build knowledge, uncover commercial opportunities and screen for business potential and skills needed to build and run the ecosystem.

Wavepiston has developed a unique, groundbreaking wave energy technology that can deliver both energy and desalinated water, but costs are still not competitive. The consortium of Wavepiston, Technical University of Denmark and Aalborg University, together with key suppliers in the value chain, will redesign key subcomponents of the Wavepiston technology to reduce weight and increase durability to reduce CAPEX and OPEX, and increase efficiency of the energy conversion for higher annual energy production. This will ensure a competitive LCOE right after the finalization of the project.
