Abstract
This feasibility study examines the production of electricity by harnessing the energy of oceanic waves. The study includes a proposed design of a wave conversion device and compares the efficiency, cost, advantages and disadvantages to other renewable sources of energy, mainly wind power. Practical challenges such as underwater cabling, device safety and matching to the electrical grid system are considered. Design aspects such as ideal generator type and size, ideal dimensions and structural requirements of the waveenergy conversion device are examined.
