Oregon Sea Grant Video Transcript:

Introduction to Wave Energy

(Video) Annette Von Jouanne.

(Annette Von Jouanne) " Well shortly after I arrived here in 1995, Alan and I began discussing the amazing opportunities available for ocean energy extraction."

(Video) Students walking across the Oregon State University campus.

( Von Jouanne) "And, also, how Oregon State University and the State of Oregon is strategically positioned to really develop ocean wave energy technologies."

(Video) Alan Wallace

(Alan Wallace) "We need a lot of energy to power the world, but it only takes a small fraction of the total available energy in the ocean to do that. Now it has been estimated by researchers in Europe that if we could take 0.2 percent of all the energy in the ocean, that would do the job."
