"have been deployed"?


The Economist this week has a section on wave energy technology, and intriguingly refers to Pelamis as follows:

"Three such devices...have been deployed (my italics) off the coast of Portugal.

Now, the Economist is usually pretty reliable on its fact checking, but the Pelamis Wave Power website makes no reference to a successful installation. I wonder who's right...has the Economist got ahead of itself, or is PWP being unexpectedly modest?
