Researchers at Cranfield University have unveiled a groundbreaking concept known as Wave Devouring Propulsion (WDP) that draws inspiration from the movement of the whale's tail fins.
The device will be tested in three phases over the next four years. Ocean Energy is collaborating with 14 industry and university partners in the UK, Germany, France, Spain, and Ireland to test its OE35 floating wave energy device at scale over the next four years, according to Interesting Engineering.
