The system will reduce the cost of anchors, mooring components and the moored structure to reduce the overall cost of energy produced from marine renewables, whilst also reducing mooring footprints and providing some element of energy recovery from structure motions. 
The key project objectives include fatigue testing of the active mooring component, development of the intelligent control system and prototype testing. The final deliverable will be an investor-ready technology development proposition supported by a detailed technology report, prototype basis of design a costed development plan and a commercial business case analysis.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
