1 POWER YOUR FUTURE Universidade do Algarve - Faro Wave Energy The experience of wave energy in Portugal Eng.ª Sofia Patrício 7 th September 2007

2 Topics Wave Energy Resource Wave Energy in Portugal Wave Energy Devices Pilot Zone Wave Energy Centre (WavEC) POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

3 Wave energy resource Solar radiation Air heating: Hot air rising Wind Generation Wave propagation POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

4 Wave energy resource National and international Energetic Sustainable Development Renewable energy Wave an energetic resource Global wave power distribution in kw/m of crest lenght POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

5 Wave Energy - Portugal Potential and Strategy for the development of Wave Energy in Portugal(WavEC, 2004) Principal conflitcs: Enviromental (protected areas); Definition Fishery of possible activity; concession areas Navigation; Hd Hydrocarbon exploration; Submarine cable; Military exercises; Archeologic areas. 250 km of coast with 50 ~ 80 m depth potentially explorable POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

6 Conflict Zones Proposed concession areas Proposed concession areas - Portugal POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

7 Advantages of Portugal Favourable climatic conditions Medium-high energetic resource in all ocidental coast Depth water near the coast Objective e until 2010 (Resolução do Conselho de Ministros nº 63/2003): Infrastructure near coast (harbours,shipbuilding infrastructures ) Grid connection points 50 MW Wave Energy Technological and scientific background (More than 25 years of R&D activities at the IST and INETI and involvement of 3 European pilot plants Pico, Limpet (Scotland) and AWS POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September

8 Wave Energy Devices Classification: localization: Shoreline Nearshore (15-20m) Offshore (>50 m) conversion system: Oscillating water column Oscillating Bodies floating or underwater Overtopping POWER YOUR FUTURE Faro 7th September
