Wave Power Project of Western Isles Could Surpass Isles’ Electricity Demand by Three Times (UK)

A proposed wave power project off the Western Isles would generate electricity for almost three times the number of properties on the islands. Edinburgh-based Aquamarine Power has secured permission to explore the potential of two sites off Lewis where it could install devices by 2018. However, the islands have no means to export electricity to the mainland surplus to its 13,195 properties.
