Abstract :
The oil supply is running low in the world cause the fuel prices
(BBM) to
be go up. This condition cause serious problems to be done. The renewable
potentials such as : the wind, the sun and the ocean wave energy must be
immediatly to seen. Eventhought, it may be too late. The potential energy and
kinetic energy to be contained in the ocean wave can be converted for utilization
of electric power.
The purpose of the research is to be use for the potential of wave energy to
be converted into electricity. The benefits of the research is for the methods and
the alternative energy are environmentally freindly and does not require the fuel
oil.
The research activity was begins with the literature study to review
previous research look for the formulation it was done. The result of the literature
studies to be continued to make design or design tools with the calculations. The
calculation refers to the principle of the ocean wave energy utilization as much as
possible.
