Abstract

The Ocean has a vast amount of energy that could be harnessed and is being pinned as a promising resource. This paper highlights the development of wave energy converter technology since the late 1960s. Main topics discussed are: the characterization of various wave energy converter technologies, conceptual and practical working principle of various devices, and briefly discussed about the power take-off systems for various concepts. This paper will provide the reader with information on varies technology and concepts that have been developed over the years which are available for harvesting energy from the ocean.
