great idea. The idea about alternative energy is that not one system is going to get us fossil fuel free. We need a combined effort of geothermal, solar, wind, and now obviously wave energy.

this is great I think it's amazing that everyone is starting to think about green energy about time too!

From the page: "The elongated metal contraptions bob up and down with the waves, while internal pistons, attached to the sea floor, remain stationary and pump hydraulic fluid. This drives electric generators, whose power is brought ashore by underwater electrical cables. The wave farm is now tapping into enough constant, renewable energy to power 1500 homes." May it be safe to the local wildlife too.

Nice. As long as it doesn't kill to many fish.

World's first wave farm now generating power for 1,500 homes in Portugal. Another alternative source for electric power.

I'm invested in several wave power companies. Too bad all my green stocks are seeing red at the moment...
