(5 posts)The only true constant is wave power. 24 hours a day. 3 coast lines. The further out you go the more intense waves often are. We have oil rigs out in those areas because of the profit and need motive. At some point in time, we will not have the oil/gas capacity we have now. It's not an unlimited supply forever. Wars will be fought and lives and treasure lost over it. A certain segment of the population has done everything in their power to curtail the use of wind capture anywhere near the coastline. It just seems to me if all the incessant arguments and investments over oil, gas, solar, wind, hydrogen, batteries and nuclear were to keep going on as they have been why should we expect a solution anytime soon? They all have their faults. The fault of utilizing wave power is strictly a dollars and cents issue that can be solved via a concerted effort of scientists and engineers with a sprinkle of AI. Beyond that, it would cause the least harm to both the on land and underwater environments if done correctly.
