    The Cycloidal Wave Energy Converter is a wave energy concept being developed by Atargis Energy Corporation in Colorado. The patents were filed in 2005, and the company was founded in 2010, after initial research showed potential. [67] It is a fully submerged wave termination device, located offshore, with a direct drive generator.

  3. Salter's duck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salter's_duck

    Salter's duck, also known as the nodding duck or by its official name the Edinburgh duck, is a device that converts wave power into electricity. The wave impact induces rotation of gyroscopes located inside a pear-shaped "duck", and an electrical generator converts this rotation into electricity with an overall efficiency of up to 90%.

  4. Wave power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_power

    A machine that exploits wave power is a wave energy converter (WEC). Waves are generated primarily by wind passing over the sea's surface and also by tidal forces, temperature variations, and other factors.

  5. Pelamis Wave Energy Converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelamis_Wave_Energy_Converter

    The Pelamis machine was an offshore wave energy converter, operating in water depths greater than 50m. [4] The machine consisted of a series of semi-submerged cylindrical sections linked by hinged joints. As waves pass along the length of the machine, the sections move relative to one another.

  6. Oscillating water column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillating_water_column

    The PTO system is the second main component of an OWC device. It converts the pneumatic power into a desired energy source (i.e. sound or electricity). The PTO system design is very important to the efficiency of the oscillating water column. It must be able to convert airflow going both out of and into the collecting chamber into energy.

  7. Wello Penguin - Wikipedia

    The Wello Penguin at Billia Croo in May 2014. The Penguin is a wave energy converter (WEC) which was developed by Finnish company Wello Oy between 2008 and 2023. Two full-scale device were constructed, and tested in Scotland and Spain respectively, although both tests ended in difficulties.

  8. Oyster wave energy converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyster_wave_energy_converter

    The European Marine Energy Centre classifies Oyster as an Oscillating Wave Surge Converter: This device extracts the energy caused by wave surges and the movement of water particles within them. The arm oscillates as a pendulum mounted on a pivoted joint in response to the movement of water in the waves.

  9. Wave Dragon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_Dragon

    Wave Dragon seen from reflector, prototype 1:4½. Wave Dragon is a floating, slack-moored device, like a ship. [1] As a wave energy converter, it functions as an 'overtopping' type which can be deployed as a single unit, or in arrays of up to 200 units; the output of such an array would have a capacity comparable to traditional fossil-fuel power plants.
