Rhode Island Novelty JKWHOME 17" Novelty Mega Whoopee Cushion, Green/Black

Product Information

They also have plans for the demonstration of an 18MW integrated floating wave and wind platform through the InSPIRE project with UK energy projects company TechnipFMC and other partners. They are aiming for a competitive Levelised Cost of Energy of €50 per megawatt hour by 2030. What are the potential benefits?

Unwanted Food or Drink Products - Once supply conditions are broken, there are a number of factors outside of our control that can affect the quality of a product. Therefore perishable goods such as food and drink cannot be returned. They say their approach is less complex than other wave energy converters reducing cost and wave energy is more predictable than wind and solar.Pressued air is pushed out of the capsules and through a unidirectional turbine and off-the shelf variable-speed generator producing electricity conveyed to the local grid through a subsea cable. Metal concave capsules are covered on one side with a rubber membrane which is pushed down when the water pressure increases as waves pass overhead. For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. https://bomborawave.com/latest-news/bombora-begins-final-test-and-assembly-of-worlds-most-powerful-wave-energy-converter/ The company began developing the technology in 2012 with their first prototype built in a farm shed in Australia using tractors to create waves in a test pool.

The company is currently onshore-testing a 900 tonne 1.5MW mWave ready for deployment 10m below the surface off the Pembrokeshire coast in Wales. It is set to be the world’s most powerful wave energy converter. Australian startup Bombora has developed a pneumatic wave energy system called mWave comprising a series of giant whoopee cushion-like air sacs deployed under water. The capsules are either mounted on a metal foundation attached to the seabed or on a semi-submerged floating platform for deep sea deployments.The mWave has no external moving parts aside from the rubber membrane which could help to reduce maintenance costs compared with other wave converter systems.
