The energy generated by the up and down movement of ocean waves is known as wave energy. Wind energy is used to create the water waves. Wave energy converters are also utilized to capture energy from the ocean waves, which is then used to generate electricity using turbines and generators. Wave energy can be extracted using oscillating body converters, oscillating water column converters, and overtopping converters, among other technologies. The market's growth is fueled by rapid development in the renewable energy sector and an increase in demand for electricity from the marine industry during the forecast period.
