Abstract

It is a consensus to widespread use of renewable sources for disposal of environmental impact caused by fossil fuel consumption, and moreover to remedy of fossil fuels depletion. Wave power is a renewable kind of energy. Worldwide potential for wave power is enormous. Ocean appears to be an important source of wave energy. Various systems are developed and some new projects are implemented on this subject. Therefore, in this study has been presented the wave energy conversion systems in detail with a classification and various aspects. 

Keywords
