Water Power Technologies Office 2017 Peer Review Report
This report details the results of the 2017 Peer Review for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Water Power Technologies Office (WPTO). The purpose of the review was to evaluate projects funded by DOE from fiscal year 2014 through fiscal year 2016 for their contribution to the mission and goals of the office, assess progress against stated objectives, and appraise WPTO’s overall management and performance.

StingRAY Failure Mode, Effects and Criticality Analysis: WEC Risk Registers
Analysis method to systematically identify all potential failure modes and their effects on the Stingray WEC system. This analysis is incorporated early in the development cycle such that the mitigation of the identified failure modes can be achieved cost effectively and efficiently. The FMECA can begin once there is enough detail to functions and failure modes of a given system, and its interfaces with other systems. The FMECA occurs coincidently with the design process and is an iterative process which allows for design changes to overcome deficiencies in the analysis.Risk Registers for major subsystems completed according to the methodology described in "Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis Risk Reduction Program Plan.pdf" document below, in compliance with the DOE Risk Management Framework developed by NREL.

LandRAY PTO Testing Utilizing the NREL NWTC 5MW Dynamometer
The overarching project objective is to demonstrate the feasibility of using an innovative PowerTake-Off (PTO) Module in Columbia Power's utility-scale wave energy converter (WEC). The PTO Module uniquely combines a large-diameter, direct-drive, rotary permanent magnet generator; a patent-pending rail-bearing system; and a corrosion-resistant fiber-reinforced-plastic structure
