Grid integration aspects of wave energy—Overview and perspectives

The sustained development of wave energy in the past two decades makes it one most promising renewable resources to be added diverse mixture supply systems. inherent difficulty grid integration involves various aspects such as suitable control power converters and conditioning processes, allowing for extraction best quality power. This paper presents a comprehensive review different devices, including classification devices based on their impacts integration, requirements imposed by codes storage technologies used (WECs). study also analyses studies converters, with particular emphasis converter technology control. Furthermore, specific attention is given combinational that use combined other due positive synergies lowering costs produced hold an opportunity future research. An economic case presented value grid.
