Thanks megafauna, that would be good if they collaborated. However statements like the following from their website worry me a little.
'COMMERCIAL amounts of energy can be extracted from relatively small ocean waves, according to a Perth company which has developed technology that it believes is the world’s most economical in harnessing wave energy.'
That sounds competitive more than complementary to me unless their system can't generate as much power as other more expensive ones, but that's another area where I don't have enough data. If it could generate similar amounts of power at a much cheaper price then obviously they'd have a huge advantage over cwe.
I must say I like the look of Bombora, pity it's not publically listed.

Every wave technology that I have come across, claims to be the world's best.
So far there has not been a technology that claims to be able to operate efficiently in both high energy deep water and low energy shallow water.
There will be room for many wave technologies, it is a very big ocean and there are various operating environments in which to harness energy.
