Description
Summary:The current research on the utilization of wave energy has not formed a globally recognized technologically optimal wave energy power generation technology. The various types of wave energy power generation devices have different power generation principles and structural forms. Wave energy has the characteristics of wide distribution and high energy density, but it is also the most unstable type of ocean energy. Compared with other energy sources, wave energy has the characteristics of high energy density, and it is technically easy to realize the miniaturization of equipment, which contributes to the development of ocean resources. This article will mainly introduce current mainstream wave energy technologies, and explore their working principles and analyse their development trends.
