Wave Energy. Waves are created by the interaction of winds with the sea surface, and possess both kinetic energy (in the forward movement of water) and potential energy (due to the amount of water displaced from the mean sea level). The highest concentration of wave energy occurs between 40 degrees and 60 degrees latitudes, in each hemisphere.

The average tidal energy resource potential for Hong Kong is only 13.7 kJ/m 2 /day or 1.39 kWh/m 2 /yr, which is very small when compared to other Renewable Energy (RE) resources. Wave energy. Using the wave data collected by the Hong Kong Observatory at Waglan Island in the year 1999, it was estimated (in the RE study of EMSD) that a 10 kW
Leading Blue Energy Revolution: CUHK Faculty of Engineering
A research team from the Faculty of Engineering of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has recently developed a water-tube-based triboelectric nanogenerator that can efficiently convert various irregular and low-frequency mechanical energies, including ocean wave energy, into electricity, providing a new avenue for the development of
Wave power generation and its feasibility in Hong Kong
Abstract: Wave energy harnessing becomes a hot issue in exploiting renewable resources. In order to convert wave energy into mechanical energy and further using generators to produce electricity, various wave energy converters have been proposed.

There are several ways to harness wave energy. The motion of the waves can be used to push and pull air through a pipe. The air spins a turbine in the pipe, producing electricity. Another way to produce energy is to bend or focus the waves into a
Feasibility of Wave Energy in Hong Kong
Kinetic energy produced by the movement of ocean waves can be harnessed by wave energy converter equipment such as wave turbines to power onshore electricity generators, creating a valuable source of renewable energy.
