The
primary objective of the project is to produce sustainable energy, in high volume
and with high power, harnessing the energy possessed by the waves of the sea
even if small. The secondary objective, linked to the particular geometry of
the system is to protect the coast from erosion and allow effective nourishment
of the shores.

The  idea is very simple but brilliant. It is the
only existing process to produce energy in a positive environmental impact
during construction, operation and decommissioning. No risks, dangerous
implications and no production of CO2. The goal is to harness energy from a
source until now considered marginal and analyse environmental impact. The
system consists of modular concrete tanks, placed in the sea, partly submerged,
located on the side of seawalls and breakwater barriers exposed to the waves or
far away, parallel to the coastline, at a certain distance to protect the coast
itself. The function of the tank wall exposed to the action of waves is to
capture the waves. It is equipped to allow the entry of the waves and to
prevent their exit. So, the water in the tank collects, up to a height greater
than that of "calm sea" which is located on the sheltered side of the
dam. The water collected in the tank has, therefore, potential energy, which
can be exploited pouring the water in the calm sea . The transformation of the
potential energy is made possible by water turbines working thanks to the water
flow. Each turbine sets in motion the electrical generator which is coupled to
produce electrical energy. It is not necessary the use of antifouling substances.
The produced electrical energy can feed the electrical grid after stabilization
or can be used for hydrogen production to be then managed using consolidated
technologies
