Wave energy for a tourist harbour

Marina di Pescara is one of the biggest touristic harbours in Italy. It takes energy from the electricity grid and uses natural gas. The Marina is going to accomplish an energy transition to renewables and marine energy represents an opportunity. Technologies in this field do not look to be mature enough and trustworthy.

Marina di Pescara wants to test systems to generate electricity from waves in its Master Plan and wants to select the best technologies. It is looking for companies and experts able to provide technical solutions, technologies, mechanical components, turbines and generators to convert waves into energy to supply the demand of the Marina.
