The solution is simple: we can use basic items such as wire, plastic barrels, one-way bearings, a pulley, an axle, a flywheel and a generator. These are the main components in what, up to today, is the cheapest wave energy technology in the world. It can even be built in wood or with bicycle parts! This is very good in countries which have limited access to expensive metals and heavy machining tools. Except for wiring, most of the parts in the generator can be made of wood or plastic. [See fig. 1.] We use a set of plastic barrels as buoys; the cost is low, and PVC isn't affected by salty ocean water. The barrels are placed near shore or further out in deeper water, depending on the amount of energy needed in a particular wave plant. Each barrel has a lifting force of approximately 100 kilograms. A wire is connected to the barrel, which goes to a brass block on the bottom, which is weighted down with a big stone and connected to another wire. [See figs. 2 and 3.] NEXUS ¢ 45 Figure 1.
