Biscay Marine Energy Platform (BiMEP)

The Biscay Marine Energy Platform (BiMEP) embodies the clearest example to date of the commitment of the Basque Government to marine (wave energy, current energy, etc.) and offshore wind energy. BiMEP is designed for testing and demonstrating prototype devices for harnessing ocean energy in terms of their safety and economic and technical viability prior to their full-scale commercial development.   Once their viability has been proven, the technology readiness level of these devices will be considered as sufficient to go ahead with their mass production to provide the population with a clean and endless resource for generating electricity: energy from our seas.
