Huge Energy Producing Machine From Wave Power. See Powergen and E-on Website for more info. The following excerpt is from the e-on website: Site Statistics West Wave Location Wave Hub, 10 miles off Hayle on north coast of Cornwall Project scope Up to 7 Pelamis Wave Energy Converter Turbine height 120-150 metres long Total power Up to 5MW Status Pre-planning Why West Wave? The UK is well placed in terms of marine energy. There is significant wave resource around the country, some of the best in the world. It has been estimated that marine renewables could meet 15% to 20% of current UK electricity demand. E.ON is committed to helping build the UK’s marine capabilities to harness the potential of our seas. West Wave will allow us to learn about wave energy developments and gain experience of the marine environment. The West Wave Project would: Supply enough electricity for up to 3000 homes Displace around 11000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions per year Ocean Prospect We are developing West Wave jointly with Ocean Prospect, a subsidiary of Wind Prospect. Wave Hub West Wave will be located at Wave Hub which is being developed by the South West Regional Development Agency. Wave Hub is effectively an underwater “socket” providing the necessary infrastructure to connect West Wave and 3 similar wave energy projects to the electricity grid. A planning application for Wave Hub was submitted in June 2006 and deployment is expected in 2008/09. Pelamis West Wave will utilise Ocean …

Any device needs maintenance at some point. Those pistons will certainly make quick work of anything standing in their way I? think… given how heavy those things are, don’t expect a bit of sea plants to jam them easily.
Corrosion is a bigger issue, as damage by foreign objects : boats, lost cargo container, tree logs…
Keep going EON;;;;;;;;;;?
good idea, permission to? share in my facebook
Oil? If is true its not renewable!! So, try to research it? more clearly!!
Under mild conditions yes, but who is going to bring them in when the weather gets rough? One design allowed the mechanism to drop to the ocean floor. However there is still the matter of sea? growth. Barnacles and seaweed would stop them from working in a short time.
you can always use? water and plastic, cylinders. It is not high speed so should not over heat like heavy equipment.
THOSE SNAKES STILL NEED? OIL LMAO
FAIL
I guess you put it out that far to sell copper wire and? to,,,, sell copper wire?
what about sea algea and sea creatures like shells and stuff…wont they stick on this device? and cause severe friction losses…does it mean u have to clean the machine continuasly
This looks like good potential when oil goes up much further. Seems that rough stormy type seas would have a silver lining for this type of generator. Calm seas? would not.
These seem to work in mild seas, however, the sea can be very? unpredictable. I would find it hard to believe the metal joints could survive the seas at their worst. What type of hydraulic fluid are you using? Could it cause contamination in a failure. The idea seems good enough to have been built and deployed, have they, and where.
this is great. you could stretch these across the? ocean for hundreds of miles, generating gigawatts of power. they probably have a positive impact on the marine environment too due to the reef effect.
Nice ! More tech on “Wonderful energy” by? HorizonDelta ;-)
Nice, but what about longitudinal waves ? More waves in video: “Wonderful energy” by? HorizonDelta ;-)
Free energy can change the world!But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Find the real? deal, a free energy device at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,The revolution begins!
01:00?
01:00?
Free Energy is real and its here but the coverup is strong, if you are interested in a REAL free energy? machine then
just search for the LT MAGNET MOTOR in the youtube video search , it is probably the ONLY working magnet
motor out there. Join the free energy revolution!!
Its a good? idea, but its a bitch to maintain and operate, and the ocean will soon destroy them – take the same idea and mount it on a beach with the complex parts on land and an arm that is connected to a flotation device which goes up and down
Reverse osmosis the gulf with this guy while my glass veins pulse. thats straight from the heart, meanning the center of? the universe. no joke
Corrosion it’s a? huge problem. !!!
better not? leak lol
efficient would be good but lets face it if we could use geothermal, tidal, solar ,wind and wave power instead of burning fossil fuels and nuclear energy? we would be way ahead of where we are now.
lol you think a nuclear power plant is efficient and not? complex lol
Thanks.?
