Abstract

Waves represent a form of renewable energy created by wind currents passing over open water. In this paper design and construction of a prototype wave energy generator with some mechanical and electrical aspects are reported. The main objective is to demonstrate the feasibility of the prototype built in unit and technical data for future developments of the design methods.
