The mechanism should address the following problems: direct transformation of the wave motion into a unidirectional rotary motion, no oil-based lubricant, higher efficiency (compared to systems already in use), reliability (avoiding the need for hydraulic maintenance).

The project device makes it possible to realise a wave power generation system that eliminates the potential environmental risks present in currently available technical solutions. In fact, many wave energy production devices are based on hydraulic systems close to the sea, which leads to high pollution risks in the event of failures or accidents due to oil spills in the marine environment. The proposed device is based on mechanical components that simply take the system out of service in the event of a failure, without spilling oil into the water.
Moreover, the proposed system is more reliable and has lower maintenance costs (no oil and seals to be replaced periodically) than hydraulic systems.
The developed device will be equipped with sensors to monitor the operation of the system both in terms of efficiency and energy production and structural monitoring to predict any malfunctions or failures.

Our innovative wave energy technology offers a number of significant advantages over traditional solutions and competing products in the industry. It also offers tangible benefits such as reduced maintenance costs, reduced downtime, elimination of environmental pollution risks and increased energy conversion efficiency.
