How it Works
The Waveline Magnet due to being relatively lightweight it is able to stay above the water. As it floats above the waves, the waves move its crank-like technology, these arms go up and down again, and again to create energy like a hand crank. The waveline magnet can be as long as 600 meters which is equivalent to 1,970 feet. It would be deployed in waters in between high and low height as due to its lightweight, if it was deployed in too high waves it could get thrown around by the waves. However if put into clam waters it would simply not generate enough energy. This device in optimal conditions is said to be able to be able to produce 100 MW per hour.
Improvement and Solution
The Waveline Magnet new revolutionary piece of technology that uses new ways to extract energy using wave power. The idea behind the machine is a robust piece of technology that is made to withstand the elements at a inexpensive cost . This not only will save the government money but help control coastal erosion and weaken the waves that hit shore. It is a rather low maintenance machine that can go off the grid for islands that may not afford to supply bigger machines to sustain a larger source. This is a large upgrade to machines that take long to build, are costly and use up shoreline. The Waveline Magnet is one of the more simple options for hydro energy sources with the most benefits for the environment and the people.Â
