Lineage

Location and extent of the Wave Hub wave power test device. The Wave hub project is a wave power research project. The project will be developed approximately 10 miles off Hayle, on the north coast of Cornwall, UK. The hub is a 'socket' sitting on the seabed for wave energy converters (WEC) to be plugged into; in the current proposals it will have connections to it from arrays of four kinds of wave energy converter. A cable from the hub to main land will take electrical power from the devices to the electric grid. The total capacity of the hub will be 20 MWe. The estimated cost of the project is 28 million british pounds.
