Waveroller, converts the movement of the waves into electricity
Today I bring you another fascinating ecological invention, especially because it is linked to the generation of electricity in an optimal way and without impacting the environment, for many years now there are technologies capable of completely replacing the use of nuclear and fossil energy. The reality is that corporations continue to determine the use of technologies that are highly polluting. That is why today I present to you Waveoller a machine capable of converting the waves of the sea into electricity.
The main importance of this business sector is precisely its vocation to create different technologies that seek the emancipation of raw materials whose extractive activity has ended up wearing down and making disappear our ecosystems that are extremely necessary for the harmonious life of all species on the planet.
One of the biggest challenges is in the energy field, since the production of crude oil or uranium to generate electricity still occupies a percentage of at least 90% of the world's electricity, so the Waveoller is an anchorage system that works infra marine movements naturally generated by the energy produced by marine waves, this kinetic energy is accumulated in generators that send electricity without harming the environment, is zero emissions. If we take into account that 70% of the planet is covered by water and that the main cities of the world are located on the coasts makes it 100% reliable because the Waveoller is installed less than 20 meters deep on any sea coast.
Although this is more of a prototype that only some Asian countries are almost all those who have the system installed and does not represent all the energy generated by the device, it means a big step to generate energy in a clean way without impacting the environment.
The hydraulic system is able to have at the same time a generator in the form of a turbine that takes advantage of the energy produced by the wave, this also means that at certain times of the year the system may be more optimal, as well as in others the system may be deficient, for this the problem is solved thanks to accumulators and stations where energy can be stored.
Some of the European countries that possess this technology are Ireland, France, and Portugal where they have installed in their coasts the device to generate electricity, monitoring all the advances and potentialities.
I think that many countries will soon begin to use this technology to make the most of the natural energy produced in nature. Something that they should have thought long ago before the disaster that meant Chernobyl or the disasters of millions of barrels of oil that are spilled in the oceans, causing greenhouse gases with the pollution that produces the fuel when processed to generate energy in all its presentations.
Perhaps the positive thing is that Mexico one of the countries that innovate most in the field of renewable energy is planning the largest construction of Waveoller that will be located in Baja California, and will consist of 70 units that will generate about 20 megawatts of electrical power. Which is estimated to cost about 10 million euros.
The main problem of this type of technology is its low investment, the more businessmen are willing to invest in this new energy model more possibilities we have to improve the planet and heal their wounds.
