As I understand the minimum wave height required to produces 100% power is one meter wave height. The Garden Island site has been rated by CWE through wave rider buoy testing over a couple of years at having wave height over one meter, 96% of the time. With waves over one meter the system sheds this surplus energy to protect the system. The buoyant actuator along with other actuators control energy. They react automatically to changing conditions. Actuators are common in all typed of industry.
They cannot produce more power than what the system is designed to produce.
The system will still be producing power even when waves are below one meter.
Eden NSW has a wave resource of 92.4% of 1 meter and is considered an excellent site.

Thanks Taffy, would they not be better off directing some of the energy to desal rather than shedding it, or is that what you meant?
