The WITT Energy transmission system is not unlike the kinetic movement mechanism developed by Seiko.
In it's current configuration, only one PTO can be installed in each Ceto buoy.
The WITT device relies on movement only to generate electricity.
The hydraulic PTO we believe will be used in Ceto 6, relies on the actions of a rising and falling of the buoy to energise an actuator anchored by a single tether. The greater the forces involved the more energy produced.
As the WITT device is not reliant on each transmission being individually attached to a hydraulic actuator (and an exceptionally strong tether), would it not be possible to install more than one transmission unit in each buoy?
The WITT site claims that they will be able to build kinetic transmission units in sizes measured in metres. Imagine how much energy could be produced if there were 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 of these units in a single buoy?
If this were to eventuate, CWE would be in a position to offer a tried and tested platform ready to carry these units.
Because the WITT unit can be anywhere between tiny to very large, any of the Ceto buoys from 1 to 6 (and beyond), could carry the transmission units.
As well, CWE has signed agreements around the world for projects waiting to go ahead.
