Wave Energy: The Department Of Energy'S R&D Programme 1974-1983

Abstract

The intensive phase of the Department of Energy's wave energy research and development programme ran from 1974 to 1983 and cost approximately £15M. The basic objectives of the programme were to establish the feasibility of extracting energy from ocean waves and to estimate the cost of this energy, if used on a large-scale to supply UK needs.
