Carnegie Wave Energy, an Australian wave power company, announced that it would be working with the Australian government-owned energy company Western Power in order to create the world's first wave energy island microgrid that's connected to an electricity network.

However, it will add an additional 2MW peak of solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation and sufficient energy storage to allow safe, stable and
reliable interaction with the electricity grid.
