Wave powered ships

We could reduce the fuel usage and emissions from ships if we used the energy from waves. This could be done by adding an extra layer to the sides of ships which included one way openings. Waves would force water through the openings to create a store of pressurised water. This pressurised water can then be used to generate electricity or to push the ship forward.

    There would also be also be energy gains from water captured that the ship would have deflected to offset to offset any drag losses.
