What is it?The energy of ocean surface waves and the

capture of that energy to do useful workA form of renewable energyIt is not as same as tidal power and ocean

currentsIt depend on the wave height, wave speed,

wave length, and water density

Why it is suitable for Hong Kong?It can

Produce a lot of energyUse in many locationsHong Kong with large coastlines and strong

prevailing winds which can produce 5% or more electricity

Excess capacity could also be used to produce hydrogen

How it works?The air in here will be rushing in and out

When the air rush in and out, it made the generator operate to produce energy

AdvantagesThe energy is freeNot expensive to operate and maintainCan produce a great deal of energyOn-shore or near-shore plants could be

designed as part of harbor walls or water-breaks

creating a place for new colonization

DisadvantagesUnstableSite requirementNoise problemAesthetic concernNot easy to operate the electric generatorsSpecial design makes the material cost being

higherLake of competitiveness
