The impact of wave energy farms in the shoreline wave climate

Portuguese pilot zone case study using Pelamis energy wave devices

This paper describes the study of the impact of energy absorption by wave farms on the nearshore wave climate and, in special, the influence of the incident wave conditions and the number and position of the wave farms, on the nearshore wave characteristics is studied and discuss ...
This paper describes the Numerical and Physical Modelling components of the main project entitled "Viability study of the artificial surfing reef of S. Pedro do Estoril". These studies aim to establish the main characteristics (dimensions, orientation and location) of the artific ...
The influence of a set of wave farms for wave energy extraction on the nearshore wave climate at the pilot zone in Portugal was studied. Two different wave farms configurations (named B and C) and two representative wave conditions (winter and summer) were considered. Energy extr ...
