The data management plan covers the complete research data life cycle. It describes the types of data that will be generated or collected during the project, the standards that will be used, how the data will be preserved and what parts of the datasets will be shared for verification or reuse.

This report sets out the training and educational activities, and the materials produced as part of the DTOceanPlus project.

This report provides a critical evaluation of the ocean energy sector’s legal, institutional, and political frameworks with an identification and analysis of barriers and enabling factors for the deployment of ocean energy.

This document collects the main guidelines, standards and procedures applicable to the implementation of the tools and modules in the DTOcean+ suite.

The present document summarises both the functionalities, supporting theory, as well as the more technical aspects of the code implemented for this module. This module will provide the user with a set of metrics and assessments, such as the levelized cost of energy and internal rate of return, relevant to the techno-economic and financial assessments of wave and tidal renewable energy projects at different stages of development. A set of complementary metrics have been included, representing the costs of the systems against a set of benchmark values.

This report documents the outcome of the verification of the assessment design tools. The goal of the verification task was to ensure that the tools: respond correctly to a varied set of inputs; perform their functions in an acceptable time and reasonable use of computational resource; are adequate in terms of usability; and, are verified against control data. The following actions were completed for all tools as part of the verification and are described in detail in this report: definition of the verification cases and evaluation criteria; organisation of training sessions for partners; collection of data for each verification case; running the verification cases by partners; analysis of the results based on quantitative and qualitative assessments, creation of a task list of changes that could improve the tool and their performance.

This document serves as the technical manual of the alpha version of the energy capture module, including all the data requirements, main functions, interfaces and all the pertinent technical details describing the alpha version of the module for the energy capture of an array of wave energy converters or tidal energy converters.

This report collects the outcome of the work carried out to fully describing the data used for a generic ocean energy system design in a structured manner. This has been done by means of the definition of a digital representation for the elements of the whole system at different levels of aggregation (array, devices, sub-systems, and components) and accounting for different levels of complexity of the project. The ambition of the present framework is to standardise the data formats describing an ocean energy design so that it can be used as a common interchange language among different sector actors

The objective of the DTOceanPlus project was to develop a software suite of open source advanced tools for the selection, development and deployment of ocean energy systems. DTOceanPlus project made it to develop and demonstrate an open source sotftware suite of second generation design tools for ocean energy technologies including sub-systems, energy capture devices and arrays. These tools support the entire technology innovation process, from concept, through development, to deployment. More broadly, the project also provided an industry standard for communicating technology descriptions throughout the sector. To complement the numerical work, an extensive market analysis of the ocean energy sector is publicly available.

This document serves as the technical manual of the alpha version of the energy transformation module. It includes all the data requirements, main functions, interfaces and all the pertinent technical details describing the alpha version of the module for the energy transformation of an array of wave energy converters or tidal energy converters.
