Abstract
This paper examines the challenges of efficiently harnessing
wave energy. A variety of energy conversion device types
is reviewed and a generic heaving buoy device selected for detailed
examination. A number of modelling and control challenges are detailed
and a hierarchical control structure is indicated. Both potable
water production and electricity generation are included as possible
uses of such devices and each presents separate control challenges.
