# WES Third Innovation Funding Call

WES is seeking project proposals for Structural Materials and Manufacturing Processes on the following topics:  
\- Hybrid Structures (for example incorporating rotationally moulded polymers, fibre reinforced composites and/or steel).  
\- Elastomers (or polymers that generally have a low modulus and a very high elastic strain range).  
\- Concretes (including high performance concrete, cement-replacement concretes, and replacements for steel reinforcement).  
\- Other alternative materials that could provide a step change in the Levelised Cost Of Energy.

This is the first of a three stage programme for the call. Up to 100% of project costs, via a contract for research and development services, are available for Stage 1 activities.

Further details are available on the Wave Energy Scotland [website](http://www.hie.co.uk/growth-sectors/energy/wave-energy-scotland/project-calls.html).
