**DTOcean** is the only open source fully parametric design tool for arrays
of ocean energy converters.
-------------------
**DTOcean** automates the design of an array of ocean energy converters
(OECs). Automated design helps catch errors early, reduce financial risk
and encourage innovation in array design and the supply chain.
Key Features
