FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A WAVE ENERGY FARM IN THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN SEA: COMPARISON AMONG DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES

In this paper the energy production has been computed for three different wave energy converters (AquaBuOY AWS and Pelamis), at two promising locations in the western Italian seas. The energy cost has also been computed for the Pelamis device at Alghero site which has the highest wave energy potenti...
