This water mat-like machine floats freely in the ocean to harness wave energy. Wave Line Magnet is a wave energy converter that can capture energy from the motion of ocean waves and store it in the spine-like central unit for later use. It was developed by R&D company Sea Wave Energy Limited (SWEL) with the goal of creating a low-cost alternative with minimal maintenance that works in all types of wave environments. The company has tested it in wave tanks and in the ocean and plans to commercial

New waves 🌊 are being made by Japanese technology in the world of wind power! Albatross Technology Inc. is spearheading a feasibility study of the new concept of offshore floating wind turbines in light of Japan’s limited shallow coastal waters. This type of wind turbine can be installed in deep water where it is not possible to place foundations, and features a rotating cylindrical floating body that supports the vertical-axis wind turbine to keep it upright, like a self-righting doll. The new
