PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This patented equipment
is capable of efficiently harnessing energy from ocean waves and tides in water inlets/bays. The electricity is
produced by extracting power from the waves through the use of an apparatus consisting
of one of two different types of turbines incorporated into a power generating
system that is partially submerged in the waves or water. This apparatus can be
maneuvered to place the turbine into the most appropriate positions in order to
maximize its energy extracting capability. The equipment can be placed on the
ocean surface with its support base either in the ocean or on the shore. Booms,
as well as earth moving excavators, can be readily applied to the inventions to
create greater flexibility of site locations.
This equipment will
provide clean and efficient energy with minimal environmental impact on the
surrounding areas at a time when energy consumption and energy prices in our
country are at their highest levels.
