What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
A real, installed, first-of-kind U.S. system (100 kW, 7 floaters) — meaningful demonstration maturity — but it is intentionally non-grid-connected and produces no commercial performance data, so adoption-relevant proof lives in the overseas grid-connected sites.
Next
Watch the grid-connected commercial deployments (Taiwan Suao Port roadmap to 400 MW, Portugal 1MW, India) for measured capacity factors and LCOE before treating onshore wave energy as commercially proven.
