Abstract

These WECs can be used alone or in a hybrid system with other renewable

and Oman sea. Waves scatter diagram for three locations calculated based on
the data collected by the Iranian National Center of Ocean Data. According to
these diagrams, the average wave height and period on the Konarak coast in the
Oman Sea were 69 cm and 5.4 s, respectively, and Konarak had the best wave
condition between the desired location in terms of wave energy potential. Also,
the Cost of Energy (COE) and Net Present Cost (NPC) for three areas
calculated, and the lowest amount of COE and NPC occurred in Konarak. The
COE range at Konarak was between 0.523 and 0.991 $/kWh for different WEC
reduction also occurred in Konarak; and the output power of each CETO unit was
23.01 kW, and emissions and related penalties reduced by about 24 %. Also, the
effect of load change and grid extension cost on financial results sensitively
analyzed, and the results presented. The obtained financial results compared
with the results of some similar WECs and it was found that the obtained results
differed very little from the results of other research, and were within their range.

main players, including France and South Korea, is compared with the rest of
Europe and the wave energy status in Europe has been reviewed with an special

the world's wave energy density map are also discussed. This has led to a

Wave energy assessment for the nearshore region of the northern South China

Abstract
The northern coastal region of the South China Sea (SCS) is the key area
for wave energy research and application. Planning for wave energy resources
months, this paper systematically assesses the wave energy resources of three
typical coastal sites in the northern SCS. The results show that wave energy
resources have significant temporal and spatial variabilities. The eastern part of
the SCS’s northern shore has the most energy, followed by the western part and
the center part. The mean energy densities during the observation period are 2.1,
0.75, and 0.33 kW/m, respectively. The energy density is relatively high in
summer, followed by winter and autumn, and relatively low in spring. For
example, the mean energy densities on the northeast coast of the SCS in the
four seasons are 3.1, 1.8, 1.7, and 1.2 kW/m, respectively. Based on statistics for
three in situ sites, the considerable energy is mostly contributed by the sea state
with a wave height between 0.5 m and 1.5 m and a period between 5 s and 9 s.
This study emphasizes the importance of in situ observations for wave energy
measurement in nearshore locations, and the results may provide support for the

coefficients for all of the deep and shallow water source terms in modelling of the

potential along the south western Black Sea is analysed in detail, considering
annual, seasonal, and monthly spatial variation maps of wave power for each of
the sub-grids. In addition, annual, seasonal, and monthly wave power potential
variability, the exceedance probability curves, the value of wave energy resource
potential, and wave power roses are established for several locations. The value
wave energy resource are also analysed. Finally, it was determined that in the
regions (Karaburun SD3 sub-grid domain) where the average wave energy flux is
high, the wave energy flux has a high coefficient of variation, and thus the
regions (Filyos SD2 sub-grid domain) having lower wave energy flux have a
stable wave energy flux which is ideal for energy exploitation from waves. Annual
average wave energy in the southwestern part of the Black Sea is concentrated
between 2 and 5 s in Karaburun SD3, 3–7 s in Filyos SD2 and 2.5–6.5 s in Sinop

Abstract
Our communal global ocean energy resources are substantial and, perhaps even, one of
the last untapped significant renewable resources which has the ability to assist in global
decarbonization efforts. As we globally move towards a renewable energy future, ocean energy
(e.g. waves, tides, currents and offshore winds) need to be considered in the suite of energy
supply options to create a resilient, affordable and reliable future energy system. Estimates
suggest global wave resources could theoretically generate 32,000 terawatt-hours (TWh)
annually. As such, the opportunity associated with the responsible development of the wave
energy sector can not be overstated. For context, the total United States of America electrical
demand was approximately 3.8TWh in 2019. This chapter provides an overview of the latest
efforts of characterize and parameterize our global wave energy resources, a review of the
fundamental operating principles of wave energy converter (WEC) technologies, and best
practices to predict the ultimate performance and power production from the wave energy
sector.
