VISION
We’re Changing the Way the World Thinks About Ocean Energy.
Ocean Swells To Energy has the potential to revolutionize the world's energy landscape. By harnessing the power of ocean swells we can create a virtually unlimited source of clean energy with a technology that is completely Green. Ocean swell energy can provide a reliable source of power, especially in coastal communities. The development of this ocean swell technologies can also create new job opportunities and stimulate economic growth, particularly in areas with strong ocean currents and swells. With proper investment and development, ocean swell energy will play a crucial role in creating a sustainable future for generations to come.
THE
CLEANEST
Ocean swells can be harnessed to create clean energy using energy converters that generate electricity without producing greenhouse gases or pollution. These converters work by capturing the kinetic energy of ocean swells and converting it into electrical energy that can be used to power homes and businesses. Ocean swell energy has the potential to become a significant source of clean energy, providing a reliable and consistent power source without harming the environment.
NO
HYDRAULIC PUMPS
Hydraulic pumps installed in the ocean can harm marine ecosystems by producing noise pollution that disrupts communication, navigation, and behavior of marine animals. They can also destroy habitats, cause fluid leaks that contaminate water, and increase vessel traffic that may lead to accidental collisions.
NO
BATTERIES
Batteries can have negative environmental impacts due to the extraction of minerals and metals, energy-intensive manufacturing processes, hazardous waste generation, and improper disposal. While recycling can help mitigate these impacts, it is not yet advanced enough to capture all valuable materials. Despite their benefits, batteries require proper management to reduce their negative environmental effects.
WHY OCEAN SWELLS TO ENERGY
Ocean energy model, outside the box.
It's important to note that ocean swell energy and wave energy are actually two different forms of ocean energy. Ocean swell energy refers to the energy generated by the long, rolling waves that are created by distant storms. Wave energy, on the other hand, refers to the energy generated by the shorter, choppier waves that are created by local wind patterns.
WAVE POWER STATIONS
Below, you can find a comprehensive list of power stations that utilize wave power. These power stations are categorized into eight different types of wave farms, which are determined based on the technology utilized. These eight types are Surface-following attenuator, Point absorber, Oscillating wave surge converter, Oscillating water column, Overtopping/Terminator, Submerged pressure differential, Bulge wave device, and Rotating mass.
