| CETO renewable wave energy generator (from Carnegie Clean Energy). |
Two enterprises in Australia have developed the technology to convert wave energy to electricity for the grid.
One is CETO developed by Carnegie Clean Energy, Perth, Western Australia. CETO is named after a Greek sea goddess and harnesses the renewable energy present in our ocean’s waves and converts it into zero-emission electricity and zero-emission desalinated water.
Carnegie has been asked to give a 15MW commercial demonstration of CETO 6 at the world-class Wave Hub facility off the coast of Cornwall in the United Kingdom.

Also Carnegie is currently contracted to deliver a renewable energy roadmap for Mauritius, including technical, commercial and financial feasibility of high penetration renewable energy; an assessment of the Mauritian wave energy resource and the identification of a preferred site for a commercial CETO wave energy project and the design of a microgrid powered desalination plant on the Mauritian island of Rodrigues.

The other wave energy development is by BPS, based in Sydney, which has developed the bioWAVE concept and is running a pilot project off Port Fairy in Victoria. The Port Fairy Pilot Wave Energy Project involves the design, construction, installation and testing of a full-scale bioWAVE pilot plant equipped with a 250kW O-Drive module. It is being tested during 2017.

I've been researching on Natural Energy Resources for years, I find it more fascinating each time I see more universal methods being researched & developed, such growth gives inspiring hope for all Our future generations to have more stainable healthier environment, all gives effort of protecting Our Planet to live on as an whole Global Unity, being the World is all of Our home. Should be Our No1 Priority, for It's part of survival as an whole. We Shouldn't destroy what nurtures & gives life to all living species. I am truly Grateful for all those that cares of such. I Thank All that inspires & involves themselves to the degree of such great achievements, such as this being 1 area of many. Lovely !
