Carnegie is currently contracted to deliver a renewable energy roadmap for Mauritius, an assessment of the Mauritian wave energy resource and the identification of a preferred site for a commercial CETO wave energy project and the design of a microgrid powered desalination plant on the Mauritian island of Rodrigues.
The CETO 6 Project, located offshore of Garden Island, Western Australia is supported by the Australian Federal Government through a $11m Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) grant as well as a debt facility from the Commonwealth Bank of Australia.
he CETO 6 Wave Hub Project is Carnegie’s first international CETO project and will be located at the world-class Wave Hub facility in Cornwall, south-west England. The Project will be delivered in 2 stages, the first focused on the implementation of a 1MW CETO 6 unit to be followed by stage 2 a 15MW commercial array, at the same site, which will offer a commercial return on investment.
The Western Australian Government has committed $19.5 million to fund a Wave Project and Centre of Excellence in Albany, Western Australia. The Project will be the first commercial scale wave farm in Australia and will demonstrate the potential for WA and Australia to tap into a highly consistent renewable resource; delivering 24/7 clean power into the electrical grid at a time where recognition of the importance of reliable, clean energy in Australia has never been higher.
