What do nine-time Grammy-winning billionaire Rihanna, stunning beaches, and a potential 50-megawatt wave-energy project have ...
Eco Wave Power has completed a feasibility study for a potential wave energy power station at the Port of Ngqura in South ...
Osmotic energy, often called blue energy, is a promising way to generate sustainable electricity from the natural mixing of salt and fresh water. It exploits the voltage that arises when ions from ...
Wave energy has long promised steady clean power, but real-world devices have struggled to turn chaotic swells into reliable ...
Scientists at the University of Osaka in Japan have turned to gyroscopes to efficiently ...
Ocean waves are one of the most abundant and predictable renewable energy sources on the planet, yet efficiently harnessing their power remains a major challenge. Traditional devices typically operate ...
Ocean waves could be an enormous source of power for the grid: In the U.S., the motion of waves along coastlines could generate as much as 1.4 trillion kilowatt-hours a year, or around a third of the ...
We’ve figured out how to harness renewable energy from many natural systems, like solar, wind, and geothermal power. But what about the ocean’s waves? It might seem like converting wave power into ...
A small test site miles off the Oregon coast will soon generate electricity with the motion of the ocean. PacWave, as the site’s called, is not expected to produce much energy, but its technologies ...
The potential to generate clean, renewable energy from the ocean is vast, possibly rivaling wind and even solar power. Yet research and development of harnessing waves and tides for electricity have ...
In theory, harnessing all the wave energy along the coasts of the United States could generate 2.64 trillion kilowatt hours of power. Cost and the corrosive nature of salt water are but two obstacles ...
The region’s largest power transmitter, the federal Bonneville Power Administration, will be the lone customer for that emissions-free energy. In a recent agreement with PacWave — OSU’s test facility ...
