Oceanlinx has successfully re-deployed its fullscale wave energy conversion unit at Port Kembla (south of Sydney) in early February 2009. First deployed in 2005, the unit has been undergoing planned refurbishment and modifications over the past few months. Work is now in progress, explained the company, to re-commission the unit and continue the test and trial program.

Oceanlinx’s Chief Executive, Stuart Bensley, said; "The modifications to the Port Kembla unit while it was in portwas part of a structured program to apply continuous improvement to our technology. The re-deployment of this unit is a key step in the company’s technology development and commercialisation program."
