1 Seconda Università degli studi di Napoli Progetti di Ateneo di Rilevante Interesse Scientifico e Tecnologico 2007 (PRIST 2007) PhD Course on Wave Energy Converters Introduction, Research Activities and Perspectives November 2009 Departments of Civil Engineering & Mechanical Engineering, Second d University of Naples Department of Hydraulic, Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering, ing, University of Naples Federico II DIEGO VICINANZA Assistant Professor in Coastal Engineering The contribution of Renewable Energy Sources to the world energy supply annual growth rates technology: current policies annual growth rates technology: sustainable future

2 To meet the greater need to integrate energy and environmental policies, engineers in coming decades will be challenged to economically generate power from Renewable Energy Sources as WAVES. Development scenarios for the different technologies Wave Energy Converters for electricity productions A key to success for WECs 1. TECHNOLOGY RELIABILITY 2. LOW COST OF THE STRUCTURE Hydraulic Efficiency Energy Recovery Design criteria More than 1500 patent - EC since 1992 support 22 projects 10 MEUR more from private company ACTUAL STATUS: TECHNOLOGICAL DEMONSTRATION APPROACHING PRE-COMMERCIAL STAGE

3 Progetti di Ateneo di Rilevante Interesse Scientifico e Tecnologico 2007 (PRIST 2007) PROJECT TITLE PROJECT Coordinator PROJECT participants BUDGET DURATION Wave Energy Converters for electricity productions Diego Department of Civil Engineering Department of Mechanical Engineering euro 18 months AIMS 1. introduce wave energy into the Italian discussion on renewable energy e + create know-how on this issue in Italy (i.e. PhD seminar); 2. evaluate efficiency and efficacy of WECs in the Italian seas (Italian Sea Atlas + selected location design study); 3. promote the developing of WEC prototypes in selected sites in Italy. COURSE PROGRAM Tuesday, 10 November 2009 and Friday, 13 November 2009 Room n 1 of DIAM at via Roma 29 - Aversa - CE Tuesday Overview of existing WECs + Hydraulic and structural evaluation and development of wave energy concepts Friday Power take-off technologies + Case studies + Environmental impact Laboratory experiments: 3D??? Reporting / evaluation of course
