Harnessing Wave Power With New 'Oyster' Machine

A giant new machine called’ Oyster’ designed to harness the power of ocean waves and turn it into

Oyster is designed to be deployed at near-shore water depths of 12 to 16 metres, benefiting from the more consistent seas and narrower directional spread of the waves in this location. The reduced wave height and load enhance survivability and allow a high percentage of annual average power and consistent power delivery. Any excess energy is spilled over the top of the flap, its rotational capacity allowing it to literally duck under the waves.
