Artificial Blowhole Generates Elecricity from Waves

Artificial Blowhole Generates Elecricity from Waves
May-17-17
The artificial blowhole from Wave Swell Energy can generate electricity from ocean waves.

The artificial blowhole is made up of a concrete column that funnels waves through a central chamber, causing air to move through an above-water intake and drive the turbine. In contrast to similar oscillating water column devices, the unique design of the Wave Swell device ensures outward moving air is released through valves, with only the incoming air reaching the turbine—allowing for a simpler design.
