How this 'artificial blowhole' aims to make wave energy mainstream


How this 'artificial blowhole' aims to make wave energy mainstream
The UniWave200's design aims to solve problems of efficiency, durability and accessibility that have so far prevented wave energy from joining the ranks of wind and solar.

The first UniWave200 off the coast of King Island in Tasmania, Australia
Wave Swell Energy
There's a large cement structure off the coast of King Island in Tasmania, Australia, that looks like some kind of futuristic sound-weapon. But have no fear, it's merely the latest in wave energy technology. Called the UniWave200 and made by Wave Swell Energy, this "artificial blowhole" is a fresh take on a classic wave energy converter known as an oscillating water column.

Wave Swell Energy installs generator off King Island in world first hybrid trial


4 February 2021
An innovative Australian wave energy generator has been deployed in the ocean off King Island, where it will be connected to the Bass Strait island’s power grid and tested alongside existing wind, solar and diesel resources – a first in Australia and possibly the world.
Melbourne-based company Wave Swell Energy said the 200kW Uniwave unit, or Uniwave200, had been installed successfully adjacent to the Grassy harbour, in King Island’s south, and was “sitting proudly” on the seabed in about 5.75 metres of water.
The “oscillating water column” (OWC) technology, which the company has likened to an “artificial blowhole,” works by using waves to produce high pressure air, which is converted into electricity by a turbine.

Renewable 'Blowhole' Energy to Power Tasmanian Island


Renewable ‘Blowhole’ Energy to Power Tasmanian Island
Wave Swell Energy (WSE) has deployed its wave energy power generator at King Island, Tasmania.
The boat-like structure will generate power from three renewable sources simultaneously—wave, wind, and solar. It will be integrated into the existing Tasmania Hydro renewable energy network and provide electricity for the local grid.
WSE co-founder Tom Denniss said the technology used for the project is actually rather simple. “It’s very much like an artificial blowhole,” he said.
“There’s a big chamber [open underneath the waterline] and the waves cause the water in the chamber to rise and fall,” he said. “That displaces the air, which drives the turbine and creates electricity.”

The Drilldown: Exxon Mobil announces carbon capture investment


The Drilldown: Exxon Mobil announces carbon-capture investment

The Lead
Exxon Mobil has created a division to commercialize its technology that helps reduce carbon emissions, and announced a plan to invest $3 billion in lower-emission solutions through 2025. The company said it would first work on capturing carbon-dioxide emissions from industrial plants, and sequestering the gas so it doesn’t enter the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.
“We have the expertise that can help bring technologies to market and make a meaningful difference,” said Exxon Chief Executive Darren Woods.
Many climate experts believe carbon sequestration will be critical in the fight against global warming.
