Limerick Wave\u2019s mission is to transform the mechanical power of sea waves into electrical power for general consumption.<\/h2>\n
The prospect of generating electricity for sea waves is a real one. When we generate electricity from sea waves, we will have a predictable, reliable, and sustainable electricity supply. This predictable source of renewable energy allows for the permanent decommissioning of existing traditional electricity generation sources from fossil and nuclear fuels. 70% of our planet is covered by moving sea waves. The total wave energy resource by far exceeds the global consumption of electricity.1<\/sup><\/p>\n
In the main, companies involved in the wave energy conversion work autonomously and do not share technology; we have not learned from the wind industry, where technology was shared and, as a result, great progress has been achieved.<\/p>\n
