Seaweed-Like Device Generates Electricity Underwater | Headline Science
Ocean waves can be powerful, containing enough energy to push around sand, pebbles and even boulders during storms. These waves could be tapped as a source of renewable energy to power floating buoys and submerged sensors because wind and solar power aren’t suitable for underwater applications. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Nano have developed flexible power generators that mimic the way seaweed sways to efficiently convert surface and underwater waves into electricity.

Why We Put Wind Turbines Underwater
Underwater wind turbines are a groundbreaking advancement in renewable energy technology. Unlike their towering counterparts on land, these turbines are strategically positioned beneath the ocean's surface to harness the immense power of underwater currents and tides. This innovative approach combines the forces of nature with cutting-edge engineering to generate clean, sustainable electricity.
The underlying principle behind underwater wind turbines is elegantly simple. As ocean tides surge in and out due to the Moon's gravitational pull on Earth, the movement of water causes the turbine's blades to rotate. This rotation, similar to how traditional wind turbines capture wind energy, generates electricity that can be utilized for various applications. The concept leverages the natural rhy...

Wave energy to compressed air underwater storage to turbine generators rev 2
The second video of a similar idea, but now includes a better depiction of how the air is stored underwater.
Designed for the southern coastal populations of Australia. Including Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Hobart, and all smaller cities and towns in between.
Once Coal and Gas power generation are removed, we need to look at super green renewable energy sources. Given that our planet is covered by 78% ocean, it makes sense to utilize it for our energy source and energy storage. Wave energy along the southern coastline of Australia is as good as it gets. The northern coastlines of WA, NT and QLD, and the east coast of NSW do not have suitable regular waves to extract energy from. They do experience large tidal flow, which could also be used to power this system, but in a different way.

Underwater Turbines Final
An artistic animation of the world record breaking Davidson-Hill Hydro Kinetic Venturi Turbine as powerful as three similar sized units seen here arrayed in a tidal stream - note that each unit operates similar to a wind sock at an airport with no outside input of energy, it passively orients itself to point upstream so as it is always pointing in the optimal direction - imagine these cabled together and power coming ashore to a terrestrial base where the electricity is then fed into the gird at the appropriate voltage and phase. The unique venturi design houses the turbine and direct drive generator fitted to the two disk rotors eliminating the need for a gear box. The generator is electronically feathered such that the generator produces power from the first moment of inertia and ramps u...

Underwater wind turbines are a groundbreaking advancement in renewable energy technology. Unlike their towering counterparts on land, these turbines are strategically positioned beneath the ocean's surface to harness the immense power of underwater currents and tides. This innovative approach combines the forces of nature with cutting-edge engineering to generate clean, sustainable electricity.
The underlying principle behind underwater wind turbines is elegantly simple. As ocean tides surge in and out due to the Moon's gravitational pull on Earth, the movement of water causes the turbine's blades to rotate. This rotation, similar to how traditional wind turbines capture wind energy, generates electricity that can be utilized for various applications. The concept leverages the natural rhythm of the tides, making it a reliable and consistent source of power.
Despite the immense potential of underwater turbines, the industry faces significant challenges. It is a relatively young field with no established supply chains or manufacturing processes. Engineers grapple with issues like corrosion and biofouling, as well as concerns about their impact on marine ecosystems and wildlife displacement. Nevertheless, as technology evolves and solutions are developed, underwater wind turbines hold promise as a vital component of a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.

The second video of a similar idea, but now includes a better depiction of how the air is stored underwater.
Designed for the southern coastal populations of Australia. Including Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne and Hobart, and all smaller cities and towns in between.
Once Coal and Gas power generation are removed, we need to look at super green renewable energy sources. Given that our planet is covered by 78% ocean, it makes sense to utilize it for our energy source and energy storage. Wave energy along the southern coastline of Australia is as good as it gets. The northern coastlines of WA, NT and QLD, and the east coast of NSW do not have suitable regular waves to extract energy from. They do experience large tidal flow, which could also be used to power this system, but in a different way.

An artistic animation of the world record breaking Davidson-Hill Hydro Kinetic Venturi Turbine as powerful as three similar sized units seen here arrayed in a tidal stream - note that each unit operates similar to a wind sock at an airport with no outside input of energy, it passively orients itself to point upstream so as it is always pointing in the optimal direction - imagine these cabled together and power coming ashore to a terrestrial base where the electricity is then fed into the gird at the appropriate voltage and phase. The unique venturi design houses the turbine and direct drive generator fitted to the two disk rotors eliminating the need for a gear box. The generator is electronically feathered such that the generator produces power from the first moment of inertia and ramps up, electronically controlled, producing 30% more energy over the life time of the unit. The turbine blades are also unique as they are self pitching providing an earlier of the first moment of inertia. These Patented features make the Davidson-Hill Venturi Turbine the most advanced design anywhere. See our GoFundMe to make an online video documentary today - want one of these - contact Tidal Energy Pty Ltd today for more information. Development for a greener future !
