Pilot WaveHexapod
Wave energy is the most prominent form of marine energy. Waves are produced by the action of ebb and flow in combination with the wind. The energy density and predictability of waves makes them an interesting form of renewable energy, complementary to the energy mix of wind and sun. Wave energy can be generated via so-called Wave Energy Converters (WEC-s). With this project, an innovative WEC is realized: the WaveHexaPod (WHP). Unlike existing WEC-s, the WHP can generate energy very efficiently in 3 dimensions with small movements of the waves. The WHP has 6 (hexa) robots as legs on 3 buoys w…
