Energy Converters

An N-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter is proposed for grid connection of large wave power farms. The point-absorber wave energy converters are individually rectified and used as isolated DC-sources. The variable power characteristics of the wave energy converters are discussed, and a method of mitigating this issue is demonstrated. The complete power control system is given in detail and has been experimentally verified for a single-phase setup of the 9-level inverter. Theoretical expressions of the power sharing between multilevel cells are derived and show good correspondence with the experimental results.

Human Power

Ocean wave power is emerging as a particularly attractive form of renewable energy. Dielectric Electric Active Polymers (DEAP) have has been used to transform electrical to mechani¬cal energy in an actuator mode. However it has few applications in a generator mode. This paper introduces a new concept of “New Renewable Energy” and presents a prototype of DEAP ocean wave powered generator, which has been developed at Knowledge Discovery Laboratory (KDL), Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). The DEAP prototype could be easily extended to other applications such as human-power generator, conventional power generators, and wind power applications.

Real Challenge

With the exponential rise in human population, the need for energy is becoming a real challenge to many countries around the world. Shortages in fossil sources of energy and its rising prices are beginning to cause many socio-economic problems and unrest in many parts of the world. This brings the need and importance of finding alternative and reliable sources of power. In recent years, the power of ocean waves began to attract attention. In this article, a design of the Wave Power Generator device is presented. This design is introduced to improve the efficiency. The proposed design is compared with an existing device that exploits the sea waves, converting the its energy to electrical power. This study aims to show that the instrument would achieve a higher efficiency by generating a greater total of electricity with the appropriate design and focus. The study is simulated using MATLAB. Results of the study show the electricity energy generated improved up to 80% in contrast to the present instrument. The results of this work could lead the way towards more active implementations of wave power generators and the use of sustainable energy resources.
