American and Portuguese scientists have developed a new method to obtain electricity from ocean waves. In the new project, it is necessary to produce electricity by running the air where waves are compressed.

Massachusetts Technology Institute and in the project developed in Lisbon Technical University, will be installed on the beach and a closed expansion that will extend from the sea to the sea, when pushes strong ocean waves, push will be directed to an air tribunal electric rotating with the effect of pressure. Studies for use wave in energy production have been carried out for a long time. The economists have a warning that the facilities to produce electricity between 100 and 200 megawatts will damage sea life.

The science people connecting great hope to the energy to be added from the beaches, "In the eyes of energy production from the present, because it is working on a long time, but the potential of energy to be derived from the wave is too much but the engineering science associated with it is very young, more time needed."
