'''CETO''' is a ] technology that converts ]s into renewable power and ] freshwater. It was developed by Carnegie Wave Energy Limited, an Australian ]-listed inventor and owner of the patented device. Carnegie raised over $45m to fund the development of the technology which it has tested off ], and in early 2015 commissioned a production installation connected to the grid. All the electricity generated is being purchased to run ] naval base at ], Western Australia. Some of the energy will also be used directly to desalinate water.
<!-- both articles claim this is first grid connection of wave power in world -->

CETO is designed to be a simple and robust wave technology. CETO is the only ocean-tested wave-energy technology globally that is both fully submerged and generates power and or desalinated water onshore. The CETO technology has been independently verified by ] (EDF EN) and the French naval contractor DCNS.<ref name="carnegiewave">Carnegie Wave Energy, 2011. Available from <http://www.carnegiewave.com/> </ref>

==Technology==

Named after a Greek ocean goddess, ], the system distinguishes itself from other traditional ] devices in being a fully submerged, pumping technology that drives the hydraulic fluid onshore. Submerged buoys are moved up and down by the ocean swell, driving pumps that pressurize seawater delivered ashore by a subsea pipeline. Once onshore, the high-pressure seawater is used to drive hydro-electric turbines, generating zero-emission electricity. The high-pressure seawater can also be used to supply a ] desalination plant, creating zero-emission freshwater. Conventional seawater desalination plants are large emitters of greenhouse gases; this is due to the amount of energy required to drive the grid-connected pumps that deliver the high-pressure seawater to reverse osmosis membranes for the removal of the salt.<ref>Desalination, 2010. Available from <http://www.environment.gov.au/soe/2006/publications/emerging/desal/index.html> </ref>

Traditionally, wave technologies are characterised as offshore, floating power stations.

== Commercial demonstration and independent verification of results ==
On completion of Stage 1 of the Perth Wave Energy Project, Carnegie enlisted ] to verify the CETO 3 unit's measured and modelled capacity. During the CETO 3 in-ocean trial, Frazer–Nash verified the peak measured capacity to be 78&nbsp;kW and delivered a sustained pressure of 77 bar, above what is required for seawater reverse-osmosis desalination.

CETO-unit

CETO is a wave-energy technology that converts ocean swells into renewable power and desalinated freshwater. It was developed by Carnegie Wave Energy Limited, an Australian ASX-listed inventor and owner of the patented device. Carnegie raised over $45m to fund the development of the technology which it has tested off Fremantle, and in early 2015 commissioned a production installation connected to the grid. All the electricity generated is being purchased to run HMAS Stirling naval base at Garden Island, Western Australia. Some of the energy will also be used directly to desalinate water.

CETO is designed to be a simple and robust wave technology. CETO is the only ocean-tested wave-energy technology globally that is both fully submerged and generates power and or desalinated water onshore. The CETO technology has been independently verified by Energies Nouvelles (EDF EN) and the French naval contractor DCNS.

Technology

Named after a Greek ocean goddess, Ceto, the system distinguishes itself from other traditional wave-energy devices in being a fully submerged, pumping technology that drives the hydraulic fluid onshore. Submerged buoys are moved up and down by the ocean swell, driving pumps that pressurize seawater delivered ashore by a subsea pipeline. Once onshore, the high-pressure seawater is used to drive hydro-electric turbines, generating zero-emission electricity. The high-pressure seawater can also be used to supply a reverse osmosis desalination plant, creating zero-emission freshwater. Conventional seawater desalination plants are large emitters of greenhouse gases; this is due to the amount of energy required to drive the grid-connected pumps that deliver the high-pressure seawater to reverse osmosis membranes for the removal of the salt.

Traditionally, wave technologies are characterised as offshore, floating power stations.

Commercial demonstration and independent verification of results

On completion of Stage 1 of the Perth Wave Energy Project, Carnegie enlisted Frazer-Nash Consultancy Ltd to verify the CETO 3 unit's measured and modelled capacity. During the CETO 3 in-ocean trial, Frazer–Nash verified the peak measured capacity to be 78 kW and delivered a sustained pressure of 77 bar, above what is required for seawater reverse-osmosis desalination.
