As the demand for renewable energy grows, attention is turning toward the vast, largely untapped potential of the ocean. Wave Energy Converters (WECs) are innovative technologies designed to capture the kinetic energy of waves and transform it into electricity, offering a steady and predictable source of clean power.

Unlike solar and wind, which can fluctuate depending on weather conditions, wave energy benefits from the constant motion of the oceans. This makes WECs particularly attractive for coastal communities, islands, and regions seeking reliable renewable energy. From point absorbers that float on the surface, to oscillating water columns and overtopping devices, multiple WEC designs are being tested to find the most efficient and scalable solutions.
