Thirty or forty years ago, there was a project off the northwest coast of France that was supposed to harness wave energy.
Has anyone seen a followup on it?


There are some pretty big tidal basin projects that have been working for quite a while.

The Rance Tidal Power Station is a tidal power station located on the estuary of the Rance River in Brittany, France.[1]



Opened in 1966 as the world's first[2] tidal power station, it is currently operated by Électricité de France and was for 45 years the largest tidal power station in the world by installed capacity until the South Korean Sihwa Lake Tidal Power Station surpassed it in 2011.[3][4][5]

Have scientists considered trying to harness energy from other forms of waves?



We should try to harness all the hot air that comes out of DC
