SeaRAY WEC Preliminary Design and Test Planning

Description

The SeaRAY is a deployable power system for maritime sensors, monitoring equipment, communications, unmanned underwater vehicles, and other similar payloads. This project is to design, deliver, and test a prototype low-power WEC that lowers the total cost of ownership and provides robust, new capabilities for customers in the maritime environment. This submission includes reports for the SeaRAY preliminary system design, integration plan, and test plan for testing at the U.S. Navy's Wave Energy Test Site (WETS), as well as the preliminary installation, operation, & maintenance (IO&M) plan.
