Ocean wave energy is generated in the following ways.
- Ocean wave energy or wave energy is the process of generating electricity by harnessing the motion of waves.
- Floating turbines or buoys are the primary pieces of equipment used for the generation of wave energy.
- The areas with the highest winds are the most suitable locations for the generation of energy from waves.
- The world's first wave power generator is located off the coast of Aguçadora, Portugal.
- Perth in Australia, Gibraltar, and Sweden are the major places were wave power is under development.
- Wave energy has great potential but the exploration and development of this source of energy is still slow.
- The many technical difficulties in power generation from this source of energy are the primary challenges remaining.
