Abstract

The need for electrical energy has increased every year. On the other hand, the largest power plants in Indonesia still use non-renewable energy sources such as coal and petroleum, while these non-renewable energy sources will eventually run out. To anticipate running out of this energy, a renewable energy source is needed. This existence will not run out even though it is consumed every day. Renewable energy that can be used for conversion into electrical energy in coastal areas is wave power. The waves that always crash on the shoreline can be used to drive turbines. The turbine rotates due to the crashing waves connected to a DC generator. It will convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. The electrical energy generated by the DC generator is used to charge the battery. The purpose of this research is the know-how to design a wave power generator and to determine the performance. The experimental method is used in this study. In the results, the generator works optimally during the day with the resulting voltage of 10.6 V to 10.7 V with rotation speed of 623 Rpm to With 710 Rpm.

Highlights

  • Abundant energy sources are marine energy and geothermal energy

  • One of the renewable energies that can be utilized is waves. This can be utilized by converting waves into electrical energy

  • The methodology used is through measurement and direct observation of turbine testing in Talang Siring, Montok Village, Larangan District, Pamekasan Regency

Summary

INTRODUCTION

There are several types of ocean energy, namely waves, tides, heat gradients and salinity gradients. Another form of solar energy is ocean energy in the form of waves, tides, and ocean heat. In Indonesia, renewable energy sources are very large, including solar power, wind power, wave power, and geothermal power [3]. One of the renewable energies that can be utilized is waves This can be utilized by converting waves into electrical energy. This takes advantage of the waves to drive a turbine that can drive a generator. Generator converts wave energy into electrical energy. The wind speed will be measured. in addition, this study measures the voltage and current generated. wind speed greatly affects the speed of the waves crashing
