ITHACA, New York, Dec. 18 -- Cornell University issued the following news:
Humans have been trying to draw power from the ocean's waves since 1799, and for good reason: the energy potential of waves off the U.S. coastline is estimated at 2.64 trillion kilowatt hours, or roughly 63% of U.S. electricity generation. And perhaps since the time of the Romans, humans have stored water at high tides to drive tidal mills, the earliest form of tidal energy harvesting. Technology improvements . . .
