#Australia is planing a landmark leap in #renewableenergy by constructing the world's largest #waveenergy farm, enough to power 1 million homes. Wave energy is predictable and consistent, making it one of the most reliable forms of renewable power. https://climate-kic.org.au/2026/04/09/wave-energy-modelling/ #ActOnClimate

World’s biggest #NuclearPlant fires up 1,356MW reactor after 13-year freeze
Story by Everett Sloane, February 11, 2026
Excerpt: "Coverage of the planned restart has noted that Japan’s #Kashiwazaki and Kariwa units faced a suspension just hours after an earlier attempt began, after a minor malfunction triggered alarms. Separate reporting on Jan developments stressed that the significance of bringing Reactor No. 6 online was rising as tight supply threatened winter reliability, a reminder that grid operators are juggling risk on two fronts at once: the risk of another accident and the risk of blackouts if demand outstrips capacity. This dual pressure is why I see unit 6 less as a side story and more as the template regulators will use to judge whether No. 7 can safely move from fuel loading to full power."

Don't often post work on here, but we've just published our 2025 UK Ocean Energy Review report, summarising progress in the sector over the past year.

"It will likely require the participation of some large companies, such as GE or Siemens (both major manufacturers of wind turbines) before wave power really gets rolling, according to numerous experts. Those companies may be waiting for the technology to sort itself out before investing, a common dilemma in any nascent field.

R&D in the public interest needs to be publicly funded, and available for use at no cost.

Danish #WaveEnergy firm step closer to commercial pilot project in #Barbados
Danish wave energy firm #Wavepiston has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Export Barbados (BIDC), an agency of the Barbados Government, as part of its journey towards commercial wave energy deployment in the Caribbean.
February 4, 2026, by Nadja Skopljak
"Initial results show that Wavepiston’s flexible sails prove effective in mitigating peak forces during extreme events, thereby validating the company’s approach of using sails composed of flexible panels to passively counter extreme events. Data was collected by multiple gauges, including force gauges, motion trackers and video recordings from multiple angles."

Oooooh... This is cool... Has there been further development on this?
'#WaveEnergy:' This Floating Spine-Like Device Generates Sea #Waves Into Electricity!
By Joaquin Victor Tacla
Published: Aug 18 2022"The #WavelineMagnet prototype, which consists of numerous floating platforms connected to give it the impression of a floating spine, was shown by the business earlier this year.
The flexible and modular system is made to allow the energy generator to follow the motion of the waves smoothly. This gives the gadget control over how much energy is collected from the waves, according to the firm."

This invention may change the world of #RenewableEnergy
February 1, 2026
"Do you know that by 2024 the total renewable energy capacity will exceed 4 tw (Terawatts)? This is equivalent to the total electricity generated in the United States. The proving grounds for the most exotic and complex projects are remote regions, whose residents regularly face the problem of a stable electricity supply. Welcome to Innovative Techs! Today you will learn how a small island off the coast of Australia will change the world with the new wave-activated power generating apparatus."

"While many scientists are concerned about the potential destruction and disruption of larger and more violent waves, others believe waves have a role to play in tackling the climate crisis. The average power of the waves crossing Australia’s continental shelf is estimated to be around 10 times Australia’s annual energy consumption – more than any other country in the world."

First US onshore wave energy project! 🌊
Small Pilot project,
planned expansion along miles of breakwater at port. Will power 60k homes.
Fights dirty air at ports, #publichealth win
Similar project planned for NJ
Potential to generate 1/3 of US power with wave energy
So, can we do this on the Great Lakes?

#US's first onshore #waveenergy project gets green light
“US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that wave energy has the potential to generate over 1,400 terawatt-hours per year,” so while this project won’t be huge, overall possible power generation from tidal power is nothing to sneeze at. Known more for its role in shipping fossil fuels, the Port of Los Angeles will host the new wave power pilot being built by #EcoWavePower and Shell.
