A new Danish wave power plant has been tested in a large basin in Spain, and the results are "extremely promising", says the researchers behind.

Very nice video,but electrical output results ?...............Errrrrrrrrr..........sorry that is not available for release yet but it will power 400 homes, OK..........what will it produce for IMMEDIATE use ,you can tell me by explaining in 100Watt light bulb terms how many bulbs will it light ALL AT ONCE?............I think that NAWEC should buy a load of these with a new loan from the IMF   |

A full-scale plant has not yet been built anywhere but this technology is very promising. Read more at: http://weptos.com/
You can also watch the related videos in youtube where you can see other wave energy projects.

I think that the reasons for renewable energy resources are two fold, firstly that fossil fuels will run out SHORTLY and that products to replace them QUICKLY so that they are practically usable as soon as possible,secondly there is a reluctance to use nuclear generation due to waste products that have a radioactive life of millions of years and this has to be safely stored for that time,and the likely- hood of natural disasters destroying facilities,together with terrorist threats that exist today. Power generated from natural sources,wind,water,sun must be utilised to the fullest extent
