DESALINATION
With our system, harnessing ocean energy through WaveRoller wave energy converters (WECs), electricity can be supplied ashore to support reverse osmosis desalination systems. Ocean waves are ideally suited to power desalination plants and WaveRoller’s proximity to the shore allows the collocation of sea water supply, brine discharge and power generation
