Wave energy resource of Brazil: An analysis from 35 years of ERA-Interim reanalysis data.

Wave energy resource of Brazil: An analysis from 35 years of ERA-Interim reanalysis data.

This paper presents a characterization of the wave power resource and an analysis of the wave power output for three (AquaBuoy, Pelamis and Wave Dragon) different wave energy converters (WEC) over the Brazilian offshore. To do so it used a 35 years reanalysis database from the ERA-Interim project. A...
