Sep 2010: A series of wave tank tests for a full-working 1:2 scaled model of DRAKOO II was completed successfully in Nanyang Technological University. This model is the second revision of the DRAKOO design, which has been proven to achieve up to 71% efficiency as per the test result for converting wave energy to water jet. The resultant water jet drives an impeller-type turbine connected to a DC alternator to generate electricity. The total system is proven efficient
and the performancespectrum(i.e.efficiency vs. wave period) has been established. A sea trial of the model in Singapore water will be carried out in Oct 2010.More about DRAKOO
Aug 2010: A novel design concept of Modular Floating System for Solar, Wind, Wave and Tidal Energy Devices was developed successfully by Hann-Ocean, namely “Hexifloat(Patent Reference: US 61/344564). Hexifloat is a groundbreaking “all-in-onefloating renewable energy platform that integrates Solar, Wind, Wave and Tidal Energy Devices within a single structure, thereby creating significant cost savings by maximizing the electrical output on a per square metre basis. Hexifloat
isscalable, strong, durableand flexible. It can be easily assembled, transported and stored. The design is environment friendly.More about Hexifloat
