This June has been a month of significant milestones for SAFEWAVE with AZTI and the CTN – Marine Technology Centre presenting the latest research at prestigious international conferences. AZTI at ISOBAY 18 AZTI showcased the project at the XVIIIth International Symposium on Oceanography of the Bay of Biscay (ISOBAY 18) held in La Rochelle, France,
We are pleased to announce that the SAFEWAVE project has been extended until December 2024. This extension allows us to continue addressing the non-technological barriers that could hinder the future development of ocean energy, a key pillar of the EU Blue Growth strategy. Stay tuned for more developments in this area.
Press Release, 23 April 2024 The European funded SAFEWAVE project – Streamlining the Assessment of environmental effects of Wave Energy – has updated the MARENDATA, a data platform designed to provide instant access to marine renewable energy industry-specific information related to resource and impact assessment. MARENDATA integrates data sets from various sites, providing scientifically robust

An inspection of the condition of the Simrad WBAT – Wideband Autonomous Transceiver was carried out on 1 June. We will shortly be retrieving the WBAT and look forward to working with the results!! The Simrad WBAT – Wideband Autonomous Transceiver was installed on May 2 in the HarshLab laboratory of TECNALIA Research & Innovation, located
On May 2, the installation of a Simrad WBAT – Wideband Autonomous Transceiver in the HarshLab laboratory of TECNALIA Research & Innovation, located in the BiMEP Biscay Marine Energy Platform, was successfully carried out by a team of AZTI in collaboration with the Materials for Extreme Conditions group of Tecnalia. The Simrad WBAT is a programmable, fully integrated
Students from Biotropical IMS Master from CSIC, Universidad Internacional Menéndez Pelavo, have tested the prototype and participated in the co-creation of a card game on wave energy, which AZTI is developing in the context of the SAFEWAVE Project. Thanks to Biotropical IMS for the great contributions!
Thank you to the Marine Technology Centre CTN for the opportunity to talk about the SafeWave project at the I Underwater Noise Management Summit. Last Tuesday, Juan Bald, Head of Marine and Coastal Environmental Management Unit in AZTI and coordinator of the SafeWave project, was invited to present the challenges and lessons learned from the project at the first Summit
