Pelamis wave power. Artist's impression of Pelamis wave power machines installed off the coast of Portugal. This technology was developed by the Scottish company Pelamis Wave Power (formerly called Ocean Power Delivery),established in 1998. Sections,each 40 metres long,are linked together and flex at the joining points in ocean waves,moving hydraulic rams that generate electricity conducted to shore through a seabed cable. Pelamis wave generators were installed here in 2008 as part of Portugal's first wave farm (the Agucadoura Wave Farm),which closed a few months after it opened. This artwork was produced in 2006 | |
