Abstract
A way of energy harvesting from ocean power, e.g. tide, current wave, breaking wave and vortex, has been developed using a Flexible Piezoelectric Device (FPED) consisting of a Poly Vinylidene Fluoride, an elastic material such as rubber, silicon and resin, in our previous works. A compressed type of the FPED has been proposed to convert wave power into electric power in this study. The compressed type having a porous resin with a roughness elastic material can generate a high voltage. The electric power is increasing with wave height and the horizontal momentum due to wave breaking phenomena could produce a large amount of electric power.
