Optimum use of wave energy using OWC system
(Elhuyar Fundazioa) Engineers Modesto Amundarain and Mikel Alberdi have presented the first two Ph.D. theses at the University of the Basque Country on the use of oscillating water column converters for extracting renewable energy from waves. According to these two engineers, the technology of the plant, currently being built in the coastal town of Mutriku in the Basque province of Gipuzkoa, is the most suitable for taking advantage of energy from the waves along the Basque coast.
