Recent Progress on Wave Energy Marine Buoys

This study aims to introduce and discuss the recent research, development application of wave energy marine buoys. The topic becomes increasingly appealing after observation that technologies have been evolving in decades, yet not reached convergence. power supply is usually bottleneck for distributed systems such as Wave are especially useful this sense, they can capture convert promising “native” renewable ocean (i.e., energy) into electricity. paper enumerates developments (e.g., oscillating bodies) take-off nanogenerators). also introduces typical buoys discusses applicability on them. It concluded could be implemented a critical addition comprehensive solution systems. likely differentiate “wave converter buoys” “wave-energy-powered buoys”, which indicated by ratio generated load power.
