The Ocean is still an almost unexplored source of sustainable energy production. A team led by MIT Sea Grant's Assistant Director for Research, Stefano Brizzolara, developed an all enclosed, monolithic floating Inertial Ocean Wave Energy Converter, or IOwec. The IOwec device is highly flexible and adaptable, with the capacity to convert energy from varied sea states, while maintaining safety and reliability. A scaled down model will be on display.
