145 06 / STATISTICAL OVERVIEW OF OCEAN ENERGY IN 2012 APPENDIX 4 COMPLETED PROJECTS NAME ANNEX II - DEVELOPMENT OF RECOMMENDED PRACTICES FOR TESTING AND EVALUATING OCEAN ENERGY SYSTEMS OBJECTIVE The objective of this Annex was to develop recommended practices for testing and evaluating ocean energy systems (wave and marine currents). There are a number of different resource types within ocean energy systems (including waves, tidal range, tidal and ocean currents, salinity gradients, OTEC and hydrothermal vents) and several different approaches to extracting energy from each resource type. The present lack of technology convergence creates difficulty in comparing systems. Annex II attempted to address this issue by providing guidelines, with the intent of laying the groundwork for the future establishment of standards and protocols, for theoretical, model and prototype testing, preliminary cost assessments and the presentation of results. OPERATING AGENT Dr. Kim Nielsen, Ramboll – Denmark DURATION The Annex was set up in 2001 to address laboratory testing and, in 2006, the Executive Committee agreed to extend the Annex to address prototype testing. The Annex was concluded in March 2011. Development of Recommended Practices for Testing and Evaluating Ocean Energy Systems, Summary Report K. Nielsen (2010) Generic and Site-Specific Wave Data K.
