Abstract

In this paper, technical and economical studies conducted on the SEAREV Wave Energy Converter (WEC) are presented. This technology was first proposed in 2002 with the aim of addressing critical challenges in wave energy conversion. It consists of a closed floating hull in which a heavy pendulum oscillates. The controlled relative motion of the pendulum is used to produce electricity.
