The 10-MW array of Wello Penguin wave energy converters will be located next to Nusa Penida Island in Bali. Finnish company Wello Oy has received its first commission for a commercial wave park, after Indonesian firm Gapura Energi Utama ordered a 10 MW installation in Bali. The project is expected to be completed by the end of this year, and will generate enough electricity to power about 50,000 homes. Indonesia has wave potential of 17 GW. Wello Oy said wave power's potential market in the Indonesian region alone is worth more than €1bn ($1.19bn).
