PROJECT TITLE :
Review of Oscillating Water Column Converters
ABSTRACT:
Ocean waves are a huge largely unexploited energy resource, and also the potential for extracting energy from waves is great. Research in this area is driven by the need to fulfill renewable-energy targets, however it is comparatively immature compared to other renewable-energy technologies. This review introduces some device varieties that represent the state-of-the-art of oscillating water column technology, a quite wave energy converter (WEC). Unlike other works in literature, usually limited to specific aspects of WECs, in this paper, a system-wide perspective will be pursued, from the ocean waves to the grid association.
