Diagram of a 'wave dragon'. This apparatus uses principles from hydropower plants to convert ocean wave action into usable energy. The wave dragon consists of two reflectors that direct waves towards a ramp. Behind the ramp, a large reservoir collects and temporarily stores the water. The reservoir is held above sea level. The water leaves the reservoir through hydro turbines. | |
