Wave Climate Resource Analysis Based on a Revised Gamma Spectrum for Wave Energy Conversion Technology
In order to correctly predict and evaluate the response of wave energy converters (WECs), an accurate representation of wave climate resource is crucial. This paper gives an overview of wave resource modeling techniques and applies a methodology to estimate the naturally available and technically recoverable resource in a given deployment site. The methodology was initially developed by the Ele...

متن کاملEconomic and Social Benefits from Wave Energy Conversion Marine Technology
This paper summarizes the energy resource, the energy conversion technology, and the economic and social benefits of using wave energy technology. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) estimates that the U.S. wave resource potential that could credibly be harnessed is about 6.5% of the 2004 U.S. national electricity energy demand (the total 2004 demand was about 4,000 TWh). Wave energy c...
متن کاملFundamental formulae for wave-energy conversion
The time-average wave power that is absorbed from an incident wave by means of a wave-energy conversion (WEC) unit, or by an array of WEC units-i.e. oscillating immersed bodies and/or oscillating water columns (OWCs)-may be mathematically expressed in terms of the WEC units' complex oscillation amplitudes, or in terms of the generated outgoing (diffracted plus radiated) waves, or alternatively,...
متن کاملWave energy technology in China.
This paper traces the research stages of China's study of wave energy technology, summarizing the findings and deficiencies of each stage from oscillating water column, through onshore oscillating buoy to floating Duck. It also highlights the major innovations in China's new floating Duck device.
