Future Technology
This map made by Oregon State University shows
where wave power is the strongest. The darker the dot the stronger the
waves. This means that the dark blue and red dots show the optimal place
to put a wavepark. Already, Finavera, OSU, and Ocean Power Technologies
are testing wave power generators along the west coast of the United
States, and Pelamis and Wave Dragon are experimenting in Europe. Consequently, these areas
are where the waveparks of the future will most likely be built.
