Development and Consenting of Carnegie Wave Energy's Perth Wave Energy Project, Experiences from Down Under

Abstract

Carnegie Wave Energy Limited has been developing CETO wave energy technology for over 10 years and at a cost of $70 million. Carnegie is now in the construction phase of the Perth Wave Energy Project, a grid-connected CETO array off Garden Island, Western Australia. The Project will supply both power and desalinated potable water to the Australian Department of Defence. The Project is fully consented through a range of Federal, State and Local government permits and approvals, supported by a comprehensive community consultation program. This paper shares Carnegie’s experience of consenting this project and implications for future development.
