A world first has been achieved at the Henderson marine base in Western Australia, with the
launch of an Australian designed and built and British backed wave energy generator to sit on
the sea floor and produce electricity and fresh water with no fossil fuel input.
CETO is the first wave power converter to sit on the seabed, where it is invisible, safe from
storms and ocean forces, and self contained. Unlike other wave energy technologies that
require undersea grids and costly marine qualified plant, CETO requires only a small diameter
pipe to carry high pressure seawater ashore to either a turbine to produce electricity, or to a
reverse osmosis filter to produce fresh water.

interesting way to …
interesting way to keep the cost of the system down… instead of a dynamo inside each buoy to convert wave motion to electricity, its simply got some plumbing to pump the seawater around it towards a big power station ashore
What do NAZIs have …
What do NAZIs have to do with this? Not let people know about the truth?
Do you mean to imply that these things would cost less than a typical Thermal Power Plant? How much’s the payback time?
The cost they gave …
The cost they gave was to run a coal station for a year, not build one, what a crock to make it sound expensive, ever seen a coal plant up close? they cost billions and billions, typical media nazi scum in the back pocket of the government

Technology only in the ocean vicinity of Australia does not operate the Sea

They still make it about the money. When will they learn, its not whats best for the economy it should be whats best for the planet, We are just gussets here and should behave appropriately.
