In parallel, priority should be given to basic research that integrates the learning from these field tests into<br />

new or improved principles, materials, components and systems leading to more economic second and<br />

third generation devices.<br />

The Partnership identified key areas for joint development. These areas are:<br />

ÌÌ<br />

further develop the mooring systems<br />

ÌÌ<br />

further develop PTO systems<br />

ÌÌ<br />

further develop electrical transmission from floating structure to the seabed<br />

ÌÌ<br />

materials and components<br />
