by Peppe CroceIn the United States, newbalance 550 off the coast of Oregon, converse is about to start an experimental project to exploit wave energy. Ten submerged turbines will produce clean energy in large quantities. "The only problem with this project is its size: enormous!" Energy from the sea - Producing clean and renewable energy from the sea A pump in the ocean - More than turbines, new balance 9060 however, converse schuhen it would be better to talk about pumps attached to buoys. The functioning of these devices, in fact, does not occur by rotation but by compression. The top of the buoy - the yellow one in the photo - remains afloat, while the rest of the macinario is made to sink. When the wave arrives it pushes the heavy structure upwards, making it work up and down like a pump. The movement, slow and continuous, serves to activate the electric current generator. The approved project is still experimental, although already based on commercial criteria: 10 buoys of 150 kW of power each. Ocean Power Technologies plans to expand the project to 50 MW in the near future using half-Megawatt pumps. Size matters - These contraptions, however, have one flaw: they are huge! The "small" 150 kW model has a diameter of 10 meters and a height of 45, equal to that of a building of approximately 15 floors, for a total weight of 150 tonnes. To make a comparison: producing the same energy with photovoltaics would require more or less a thousand square metres...
