Different concepts and methods have been suggested by many researchers to harvest ocean wave energy. This paper reviews and compares the efficiencies and power performance of different wave energy converters. The types of analyses used in deriving the reported efficiencies are identified, and the stage of the power conversion processes at which the efficiencies were determined is also identified. In order to find a common way to compare the efficiencies of different technologies, the hydrodynamic efficiency in relation to the characteristic width of the wave energy converters and the wave resource potential are chosen in this paper. The results show that the oscillating body systems have the highest ratio in terms of the efficiency per characteristic width, and overtopping devices have the lowest. In addition, with better understanding of the devices’ dynamics, the efficiencies of the newer oscillating water column and body systems would increase as the potential wave energy level increases, which shows that those newer designs could be suitable for more potential locations with large variations in wave energy potentials. At last, discussion about the cost of ocean wave energy is presented as well.</jats:p>"}]}],"creator":[{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1380580240153708161","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Tunde Aderinto"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Sustainable Energy Systems Engineering, Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1380580240153708160","@type":"Researcher","foaf:name":[{"@value":"Hua Li"}],"jpcoar:affiliationName":[{"@value":"Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department, Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Kingsville, TX 78363, USA"}]}],"publication":{"publicationIdentifier":[{"@type":"EISSN","@value":"19961073"}],"prism:publicationName":[{"@value":"Energies"}],"dc:publisher":[{"@value":"MDPI AG"}],"prism:publicationDate":"2019-11-13","prism:volume":"12","prism:number":"22","prism:startingPage":"4329"},"reviewed":"false","dc:rights":["https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],"url":[{"@id":"https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/12/22/4329/pdf"}],"createdAt":"2019-11-14","modifiedAt":"2025-10-11","relatedProduct":[{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360021396349403392","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"Concept design of an HTS linear power generator for wave energy conversion"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360588379394299264","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"Design Study of an HTS Linear Power Generator Suitable for Wave Energy Converter"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1360861704773581824","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@value":"Development of model-based and model-free reactive control scheme: considering copper loss and movable-floater-displacement constraint for a wave energy converter"}]},{"@id":"https://cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1390298930854512640","@type":"Article","resourceType":"学術雑誌論文(journal article)","relationType":["isReferencedBy"],"jpcoar:relatedTitle":[{"@language":"en","@value":"Development of Dynamic Model of Wave Energy Converters Using Gaussian Process Regression"},{"@language":"ja","@value":"ガウス過程回帰を用いた波力発電装置の運動モデルの構築"},{"@language":"ja-Kana","@value":"ガウス カテイ カイキ オ モチイタ ハリョク ハツデン ソウチ ノ ウンドウ モデル ノ コウチク"}]}],"dataSourceIdentifier":[{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.3390/en12224329"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1016/j.supcon.2023.100043_references_DOI_AUTswWpu2vnqN16me0ncT0osVs4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1088/1742-6596/2545/1/012026_references_DOI_AUTswWpu2vnqN16me0ncT0osVs4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.1007/s00773-023-00933-w_references_DOI_AUTswWpu2vnqN16me0ncT0osVs4"},{"@type":"CROSSREF","@value":"10.2534/jjasnaoe.38.117_references_DOI_AUTswWpu2vnqN16me0ncT0osVs4"}]}
