SWEL is proud to announce its recent talks with the local authorities have resulted in acceptance to allow deployment of their forthcoming Waveline Magnet concept model. The experimental license, issued 23rd March 2016, allows deployment of the WM9.1 in the Potamos Liopetri region of Cyprus.
The news comes in prefect time, ensuring that the SWEL team’s progress is not hindered with delays and permits the use of the designated sea area for one year until renewal, giving the R&D team ample opportunity to conduct their research.
The SWEL team estimates an early May or June 2016 deployment and will soon begin building the next iteration of their hugely successful WEC prototype.
