Design and testing of an attenuating type of wave energy converter

The objective of this project is to design an attenuating type wave energy converter to extract power from ocean or sea currents. Its main purpose is to provide a versatile system design that can generate electricity of 20kW to 200kW range. Literature review was carried out at the initial stages of...
