Nottingham Trent University have performed a complete study on the Aegir Dynamo's energy conversion method - confirming Ocean Navitas' own calculations and design specifications prior to the construction of a full scale prototype. The study comprised the following elements:

- General operation principle
- Operation efficiency and losses
- Scale ability
- Analysis of design using ANSYS software
- Componentry compatibility with British Standards
- Strength and wear capacity calculation
- Survivability of all forces acting upon it
- Buoyancy and ballast calculations
- Materials selection
- Safety factors
