Wave Energy Converters (WEC) are designed to operate efficiently at different locations. Systematic methods are used to evaluate the power performance of a WEC at a second location (hereinafter Location 2) based on power performance assessment at a first location (hereinafter Location 1). The degree of similarity of the measured WEC (WEC 1) and the metocean conditions at Location 1 to the secondary WEC (WEC 2) at Location 2 determine the methodology and the applicability of this document.

This document applied in conjunction with the IEC Technical Specification on wave energy resource assessment and characterization (IEC TS 62600‑101), provides a method for estimation of the mean annual energy production of a WEC, assessing the electrical power production performance of a single, non-array, wave energy converter, at Location 2 based on the performance at Location 1.
