Carnegie and local partner Triton Renewable Energy will build a 2MW pilot plant on their way to a commercial-scale wave farm, providing up to 20MW of electricity generation and desalinated water to Bermuda.
Over the past 12 months, the companies undertook the first detailed study of Bermuda’s wave regime to explore the potential for a commercial project based on Carnegie’s proprietary Ceto technology, which consists of an array of submerged buoys that pump high-pressure water to onshore hydroelectric turbines.
