Seawave Slot-Cone Generator
The Seawave Slot-Cone Generator (SSG) concept is an wave energy converter based on the wave overtopping principle utilizing a total of three reservoirs placed on top of each other, in which the potential energy of the incoming wave will be stored. The water captured in the reservoirs will then run through the multi-stage turbine for electricity production. Using multiple reservoirs will result in a high overall efficiency. The SSG gives the advantage to harness the wave energy in several reservoirs placed one above the other, resulting in high hydraulic efficiency. The SSG is built as a robut concrete structure with the turbine shaft and the gates controlling the water flow as virtually the only moving part in the mechanical system. The SSG is flexible with regard to range of application. It can be utilized as a floating or a fixed offshore installation or a shoreline installation integrated in a breakwater installation. The SSG can be utilized for: • Production of electric power • Production of hydrogen by use of electrolysis • Production of clean drinking water by use of osmosis For further information, contact Monika Bakke General Manager WAVEenergy AS Opstadveien 11C 4330 Aalgaard Norway Phone: (+47) 51 61 09 30 Fax: (+47) 51 61 09 31 E-mail: monika.bakke@waveenergy.no
