The Falmouth Bay Test Site (known as FaBTest) is leased from the Crown Estate to Falmouth Harbour Commissioners. This lease exists to allow testing of devices related to renewable energy devices or associated equipment.
In the past FaBTest has been used to test Wave Energy Devices some of which have gone onto further technology readiness levels. We have now widened the remit of FaBTest to support testing of offshore renewable devices and ancillary equipment. We are also interested in exploring testing of autonomous and ocean monitoring technologies.
