Introduction

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.

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.

WPO 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.
