Mother Nature
supplies us with vast amounts of renewable wave energy. Unfortunately it is not
a stable, constant supply. Sea waves vary in size from day to day. The energy
produced is best stored into batteries so the output voltage will be stable and
constant and converted to 240 V AC. In colder climates the direct instability
and non constant electrical energy can be used to heat liquids/oils through
electrical elements, either for the production of steam or for heating
radiators on cold days without the costly repeating fuel/heating prices and
always a non-pollution way and is available free.
Description
Wave Power Only(WPO)
is a unit that allows to transform water wave movement directly into rotation movement for operation of various
mechanical devices or electricity production. One king of this transforming is patented invention
of Rims Vaitkus.
Bringing energy to a saver and
cleaner environment Atmospheric pollutants from poisonous gases given off by
fossil fuels are chocking the world, but an alternative source of „clean”
renewable wave energy has always been available to us. The problem has always
been to harness this energy in a controlled manner. The inventors of the Wave Power Only have a growing
environmental awareness of green house gases and they decided to explore the
Oceans capabilities. They have been experimenting with models for the last 12
years with good results. The first of these Models consist of a land based
system which transfers wave energy directly to electricity, model pumps, model
boats (for propulsion) and recently a floating power station all using clean
natural wave energy.
The WPO has enormous and
versatile potential out-put, which increases with multiple unit installation,
from performance figures mentioned, which can cater for the customers needs eg:
bar pressure/cubic meter. The units coupled with our patented pressure Rotator
using either liquids or gasses, will produce Electrical energy.
The WPO is versatile in the
amount of electricity production and can cater for any needs. The same system
can be used for the pumping of liquids/air/hydraulic fluids. One WPO unit using
a 25 cm high wave will produce 5 bar – 5 Kg/cm2 at 1.5 Litres per second which
are common all year round. The Bar or Volume can be regulated according to
requirements and if greater volume is needed one only needs to add more WPO
units. These figures can vary depending on the size of waves, float and pump
size. The units can be installed in any location either Cliff or Shore Line
near to a body of water. This system does not need to occupy valuable land
space. It can occupy a length of unused cliff or coastline or any other
uninhabitable areas and can be camouflaged. The raising and lowering of tidal
move moments doesn’t affect the WPO system. All WPO units use natural renewable
energy direct from the sea or a large body of water and will continue to work
as long as there are wave actions all year round. The power output increases on
size of waves or the amount of WPO units.
This description is only meant to
give you a broad sense of direction on the uses of WPO system. WPO system can be applied to fountains that
would enhance the environment – self sufficiently! We design the fountains
ourselves and apply the wave energy system to power the water fountain during
the day and light it up at night.
Because it works through wave power these fountains are not expensive to run.
The only cost is the system and the fountains – a one off investment with no
expensive electric bills.
The
competitive advantages
WPO
consists of separate motion units that can be installed unlimited along the
coastline on artificial concrete foundations or floating platform. The amount
of energy produced depends upon number of motion units. It operates with waves
starting from 5 cm and is not limited by altitude of waves.

It works in saltwater as well as in freshwater. WPO not uses oils or chemicals,
only water or air pressure.
Status of the project
Product development. We are looking for
additional investments or collaboration partner. Additional
measurements and calculations are needed.
With the ever-rising pollution problem, electricity costs and fresh
water availability we are coming up with the WPO system to:
·
Solve part of the pollution problem on how
to create free Renewable Energy
·
Produce cheap electricity or other energy
type for many consumer uses
·
Provide Pressure/Volume for various uses
·
Produce Fresh Drinking Water for various
consumption purposes
·
We are seeking other Companies to continue
to develop this system for worldwide use
Floating system
using Pump for the creation of water pressure and electricity.
Futuristic developments
The prototype Floating Island and the
Lifeboat is a typical example of what WPO system can do. On March 6th, 2002 a
floating power station measuring 4 mtrs x 4 mtrs and had 32 small pumps was
designed to pump salt water at a pressure of 25 bars. That means from the sea
level water can be pumped through pipe work 250 meters high: i.e. higher than
Heops pyramid in Egypt about 2 times.
The platform was designed to use the
available water volume to turn a wheel to produce a small amount of electricity
from a small generator and shoot a spout of water into the air. The pumps began
to operate at a wave height of ten centimetres. Larger floating power stations
with larger pumps would be able to pump fluids/air at 800 bars or more and the
system is versatile as to volume of fluids to pressure ratio and also create
electricity for the clients’ needs. Submersible cables/pipes can be used to
supply the electrical power/liquids or air to the land.
Lifeboat, which can also be adapted to be
used as a Pleasure Boat with inside electrical supply.
