Existing wave energy technology has been designed for ocean waves, which, however,
shorten the lifespan of wave energy converters and mooring systems. Furthermore …

A detailed review of wave energy resource assessment and the state-of-the-art of deployed
wave energy converters (WECs) in real environmental conditions in the Mediterranean Sea …

Climate change is driving the adoption of sustainable energy, with low-cost solar
photovoltaics and wind power at the forefront. However, land-constrained regions and …

Measurements from two Nortek/AWAC acoustic Doppler current profilers deployed for over
three years at three sites were used to estimate the nearshore wave energy resource of the …

Maritime ports have become pivotal players in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. While
most of the existing literature has investigated specific decarbonisation measures, a …

A review of multi-chamber oscillating water column (OWC) device designs is presented. Two
significant variations of these devices are discussed, onshore OWC (OOWC) and a floating …

In recent decades, it has become quite clear that the dynamics of the environmental matrix
have been subjected to notable changes. Although there are opinions that this might be …

This chapter analyses different concepts associated with economic activities related to the
seas and oceans. Based on a bibliometric literature review, it first uses the Bibliometrix …

Decarbonisation of any energy system implies that more renewables will have to be
incorporated into the grid. This requires a thorough assessment of available resources to …

The Kyoto Protocol was the fundamental crossroads to push countries around the world to
focus heavily on the development of renewable energy. Over the years, research has not …
