Making Waves

摘要

A research project aimed at developing hydroelectric wave-power converters could provide a significant boost to the UK's future renewable energy plans.rnIn a five-year partnership with Queen's University Beffast, Aquamarine Power intends to develop the next generation of wave-energy device for commercial use. The project builds on the company's existing Oyster model, which utilises oscillating wave surge converter technology to generate electricity in depths of around 10-12m.
