Deliverables

Demonstrators, pilots, prototypes (5)

Full-scale SideWind prototypes

Full-scale SideWind prototypes production and assembly of blades (panels, ribs and axis) for 3 x 20ft and 1 x 40ft containers according to the specifications (lay-up, thermoplastic resin, process manufacturing)

PMS prototype

Following the analysis will be done a wireframe that will act as a prototype, with mocked data. Whit this approach will be possible to present a model that is capable of responding to the needs of the system and allow to optimize any details before the system final development.

SideWind and PV Container

Production and assembly of a 40ft containerized turbine with PV and 3 20ft containerized turbines as per specifications. Report on the assemble of all components including blades prototypes and PV panels. Including electric configuration, measuring devices to record the system performances and results from resistance trials.

OceanWings prototype – Public deliverable

Public summary of the functional testing and validation of the wing sail.

PV System for Bulk Carrier

Production and assembly of the PV system for deployment on the container ship and the bulk carrier as per specifications. The two prototypes will share the panels technology but with different kind of mechanical installation and electrical connections, being those two tailored for the different cases.

Documents, reports (2)

WP1 Publishable summary

Short public deliverable summarizing the activities performed in WP1. The summary will only include non-confidential information in order to avoid putting into risk the innovation and future exploitation of WHISPER project.

Value and supply chain definition

Report detailing the whole value chain of WHISPER industry, including stakeholders and main beneficiaries of the proposed technologies: i) Renewable energy and maritime sectorial associations; ii) Policy and Regulatory bodies; iii) Private companies from the energy and maritime industry; and iv) Academia, RTOs and Universities.
