<p>The <a href="http://www.oregonwave.org/">OWET</a> grant will pay for a feasibility study into the potential for deployment of <a href="http://www.aquamarinepower.com/">Aquamarine Power’s</a> Oysterâ wave energy technology off the coast in the service areas of Central Lincoln People’s Utility District and/or Tillamook People’s Utility District, Oregon. The grant is specifically intended to help deploy Acoustic Doppler Current Profile (ADCP) devices which measure and record the frequency, intensity and height of waves as they approach the Oregon shoreline. Aquamarine Power will be searching for local vessels to deploy the devices. Aquamarine Power USA was one of four companies to be awarded a grant by OWET under its OWET Industry Matching Program.</p> <p>For the past four months, Aquamarine Power’s Oregon-based team has been reaching out to local communities seeking local stakeholders’ views on the most suitable locations for potential sites to install arrays of its Oysterâ hydro-electric wave energy technology. The outreach process will continue after the ADCPs have been deployed.<br /> </p>
