how much will it produce?? is it not more efficient at that scale to just physically sit there for 5 minutes and just spin the bicycle chain with your hand???
@migg137 There is about 50kW of energy stored in a standard square meter wave. If we can just harvest a small percentage it would be akin to 5 people sitting and pulling on chains. And that's just a small part of one wave! Plus waves are 24hours.
Great idea: are there any similar small scale units anywhere which are producing energy that you know of?
