The kinetic energy of an object is the energy which it possesses due to its motion.[1] It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body in decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

Cancel
all ocean energy resources, including wave power, would combine to create energy 800 times more powerful than wind
...

Cancel
Currently, wind is our biggest renewable energy source

Cancel
What are the benefits of wave power? Because wave devices tend to be on the surface and don’t have propellers, as tidal power technologies do, some believe they will create less environmental damage than other renewable energy technologies,
...

Cancel
There are advantages compared to wind in that the devices are smaller and don’t have the visual profile that wind turbines have.”
