The project will use OPT’s patented PowerBuoy system. Currently OPT is also involved in projects in Hawaii and New Jersey USA. The New Jersey project has already been deployed and the Hawaii project is slated to be deployed in 2007. The Spanish project is underway with Iberdrola and other Spanish partners.
The Powerbouy system will be connected to the Spanish grid and OPT will be paid for the operation and regular maintenance of the wave energy plant for up to 10 years. The planned capacity is 1.39 MW
