While some engineers continue to develop highly complex systems to recover energy from the sea, others, thankfully, are still focussed on improving systems so simple and ingenious that they leave you gasping. This is the case with the Bottom Wave Generator, developed by the American company Green Wave Energy Corp, generous with videos to illustrate its invention! It consists of a cylindrical tube held vertically in the water. Like all tubes kept vertical in a liquid that is moving, water rises and falls generating electiricity as it does so. Simple, but someone had to think of it, and then actually put it into practice. As of now such a device exisits, and... it works, and, according to its buiilder, costs but US$20.000 per unit.
