    TECHNOLOGY

    Were basically talking about a technology that will be able toharness the enormous amount of mechanical energy in ocean waves

    and convert that into low-cost, reliable electricity

    OPTs Power Buoy wave generation system uses a smart oceangoing buoy tocapture and convert wave energy into low-cost, and clean electricity.

    POWER BUOY

    10/15

    HOW IT WORKS Wind blows across surface of the ocean

    Waves accumulate mechanical energy

    Rising and falling of waves cause buoy tomove freely up and down

    Mechanical motion is converted through anelectrical generator inside the buoy

    Generated wave power is transmittedashore through an underwater power cable

    BENEFITS Powered by endless source of ocean waves

    Proprietary power storage and managementsystem allows energy even when there are

    no waves Completely independent of shore power

    Environmentally benign

    Designed for long-term ocean survivability

    Any area with yearly averages of over 15kW per meter (shown

    here) has the potential to generate wave energy at competitiverices.
