An ocean wave energy-harnessing technology currently being used in Denmark. The Wave Dragon machine is a floating, slack-moored energy converter that can be deployed in a single unit or in arrays of Wave Dragon units resulting in a power plant with a capacity comparable to traditional fossil based power plants.

Power derived from forces produced by ocean waves. Waves are caused by the wind blowing over the surface of the ocean. In many parts of the world, the wind blows with enough consistency and force to provide continuous waves. Wave power devices can extract energy from the surface motion of these waves as well as from pressure fluctuations below their surface.
