In this paper, an array of different offshore wave energy conversion devices using a power generation system designed to create an efficient facility for the grid power integration is presented. The power generation system consists of a 10 miles sub-sea cable and distribution unit connected to four wave energy devices. This work will also form the basis for assisting to find electrical connection configurations of the WECs. Results from this model will allow for the analysis of simple wave farm set-ups. Arrays can then be investigated to reduce the power output fluctuations and improve the whole power generation efficiency to take advantage of the arrays. (6 pages)
