Wave Systems

Description

Production of energy converting systems based on the movement of waves (commonly known as wave farms). In most systems the ocean waves move a piston which either pumps a fluid or drives a turbine. Besides technical challenges, the systems suffer from unestablished grid connectivity under water (and close to the coast).
