This document includes the main requirements, use cases, as well as implementation details and is completed with some examples; it can serve as a technical manual of the catalogues module. This document describes the functionalities and the technical aspects of the code implemented to meet them. The catalogues module will provide users with a single source of reference data that can be managed and used in other modules or tools of the DTOcean+ suite to ease inputs during different phase of a project.

This deliverable analyses the value chain of ocean energy, regarding its stakeholders, structure, current engagement and breakdown of project costs. It explores the mapping of the opportunities for European companies and encompasses the typical project lifecycle activities, such as project management, supply of ocean energy devices and balance of plant, as well as the installation, commissioning, operations & maintenance, and decommissioning activities.

This report is the outcome of a task dedicated to specific sector standards for business management models for the ocean energy sector. The aim of this task was to define alternative business models for the sector by developing a greater understanding of these models and recommending development routes to industrial roll-out to improving the market opportunity.

This report describes the methodology used to refine the validation scenarios and the compilation of required data inputs, accounting for the different potential use cases

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

This deliverable presents the main components of the final and most important result of the project, namely the integrated suite of design tools for ocean energy systems innovation, development and deployment. The toolset includes: installer, catalogues, online documentation and example test cases.

The aim of this document is to present the activity carried out by the three industrial partners who validated the DTOcean+ suite against five tidal energy validation scenarios.

A coherent set of functional and technical requirements have been developed for the DTOceanPlus suite of design tools based on analysis of gaps between the current state-of-the-art tools, learning from the original DTOcean project, and the stakeholder expectations identified in the user consultation survey. The technical requirements in this document are translated from the general requirements for the overall suite of tools, and specific requirements (functional, operational, user, interfacing, and data) for the Structured Innovation design tool that has been developed as part of this project. These requirements relate to detailed technical requirements of the technology and environment, for the development, maintenance, support and execution of the software specifications to best meet the needs of the ocean energy industry.

The main objective of this atlas is to summarise the knowledge acquired on biofouling, and more generally on communities of living organisms on hard substrates, available today in mainland France and the French overseas territories, in order to anticipate the issues that this phenomenon will pose in an ORE context. The atlas is based on the most exhaustive bibliographical analysis possible, including A-level scientific articles, reports (training courses, monitoring, studies), and works presenting the results of studies conducted in French waters

This report describes the methodology used to define the “validation scenarios”, accounting for the different potential use cases. Given the large number of permutations of tools, use cases, and the set of minimum validation requirements, the number of validation scenarios has been reduced to a number that can be run during the life of the DTOceanPlus project but that are sufficient to fully demonstrate the functionality of the DTOceanPlus suite of tools. The selection process, based on a successive approximation approach, has led to the cases that the potential users in the DTOceanPlus consortium have considered as the most relevant for the sector. In Section 4 of the document, the selected validation scenarios is described; the definition of these scenarios has been completed during the project to ensure that the most updated information is used.
