Leading global wave energy developer Eco Wave Power is to participate in the ILIAD Consortium, which has been awarded €17m by the European Union as part of the €1bn European Green Deal. The ILIAD Project, which is comprised of 56 partners from 18 different countries in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, will develop, operate, and demonstrate the ILIAD Digital Twin of the Ocean (DTO). The ILIAD consortium aims to combine high-resolution modelling with real-time sensing of ocean parameters, advanced algorithms for forecasting of spatio-temporal events and pattern recognition. The DTO will consist of several real-time to near-real-time digital replicas of the ocean.
