The search is for new ways to harness renewable resources to supply our rising energy needs. The key question, however, is why ocean and sea waves haven't been used in carbon emission reduction ...
Sea Wave Energy Ltd has been working for more than a decade on an ultra-cheap floating wave energy device. With several prototypes tested, the company is promising capacities over 100 MW, with unheard ...
Wave Swell Energy, an Australian clean energy company, developed an extraordinary wave energy harvesting platform. Named UniWave 200, the platform is capable of harvesting much more energy from sea ...
Eco Wave Power has been floating its wave energy system for more than 10 years, where the rise and fall of coastal waters drives hydraulic pistons that run a generator to produce electricity. Now the ...
