AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing wave energy capture systems face challenges with structural damage during storms and are limited by tidal energy capture, which occurs only twice a day, requiring large footprints and specific deployment areas.
Method used
A closed offshore dual-bladder system that captures wave energy using compliant bladders spaced apart by half a wavelength, translating fluid between bladders via a conduit system with a gear mechanism to harness energy from pressure differentials, anchored below water to withstand extreme weather.
Benefits of technology
The system efficiently captures continuous wave energy with minimal downtime and reduced environmental impact, generating significant power even in inclement weather, scalable for various wave conditions.
