Pelamis Wave Power

Pelamis Wave Power developed a device that generates electricity from ocean waves. It consists of a series of interconnected, floating tubes called segments that move with the waves. As waves pass, these segments flex and pivot, converting the mechanical movement into hydraulic power. This hydraulic energy drives turbines that produce electricity, which is then sent to the grid. The system is designed to harness renewable wave energy efficiently and reliably, offering a sustainable way to generate clean power from the ocean's natural motion.
