| dc.description.abstract | The increasing global demand for sustainable and uninterrupted energy has accelerated the
development of hybrid renewable power generation systems. With ever-increasing global
energy demand and finite reserves of fossil fuels, renewable forms of energy are becoming
increasingly important to consider. Wave energy is a widely available source of renewable
energy that is being investigated by dozens of wave energy projects using a variety of
techniques. One common design for a wave energy converter (WEC) is the point absorber or
buoy, which floats on or below the water surface and captures energy from the movement of
the waves. This project presents the design and conceptual development of a tri-wave power
generation system that integrates solar energy, sea water wave energy, and wind energy to
achieve continuous power generation. The proposed mechanical system is specifically intended
for marine (sea-based) installation, enabling effective utilization of abundant natural resources
available in coastal and offshore environments. By combining three renewable sources, the
system aims to overcome the intermittency limitations associated with single-source power
generation and ensure all-time power availability regardless of season or time of day. The
project emphasizes maximum utilization of natural energy sources with minimal environmental
impact. Key challenges associated with marine deployment, such as cyclonic conditions,
saltwater corrosion, and harsh sea environments, are analyzed, and design considerations are
discussed to enhance system reliability and durability. The tri-wave power generation concept
demonstrates significant potential as a sustainable solution for continuous renewable energy
production, particularly in coastal regions. This project highlights the feasibility of hybrid
renewable systems as an effective approach toward meeting future energy demands while
reducing dependency on conventional fossil fuels | en_US |
