MEGA WAVE PTO at ICOE OEE 2026
5–7 October 2026 | The Hague, the Netherlands
From 5 to 7 October 2026, the international ocean energy community will gather in The Hague for ICOE OEE 2026. Bringing together more than 200 speakers across over 30 conference tracks, the event offers an opportunity for MEGA WAVE PTO to share its latest progress, exchange knowledge and connect with the wider ocean energy sector.
Throughout the three-day conference, consortium partners will be available at Stand 7 in the exhibition area to discuss the project and its work on developing scalable, reliable and maintainable modular power take-off systems for wave energy. Visitors will also have the opportunity to see a CGEN demonstrator and learn more about the technology behind the project.
