Description

Wave Farms are composed by a series of devices, that can harnest the energy of waves. Although this devices are floating, they are achored to the sea floor, so they do not drift away. There are many shapes and sizes of wave energy converters, so we refrain to ilustrate them here.

MSP Challenge

Wave Farms are used to produce green energy, in the MSP challenge the calculated amount of energy produced by a wind farm is based on its area.

Wave farms are depicted as polygons, i.e., geometric shapes that you can draw in, edit or remove when making a plan. They create the following pressures on the ecosystem:
