Hydro kinetic energy

media type="youtube" key="7TSmYmV23W0" height="420" width="527" Hydro kinetic energy is made from two words that are ¨hydro¨ and ¨kinetic¨. ¨Hydro¨means water and ¨kinetic¨means motion. Hydro kinetic energy is made by using kinetic energy using water that are the waves. The most common way of making hydro kinetic energy is the new... sea worm!!! The sea worm (pelamis) is a devise that you put in the water and with the power of the waves it creates energy. A water farm is an space in the sea that has fourty pelamis that can produce energy for around 20,000 common houses. These devises are used near to the coast only like two kilometres away. These inventions are very good but it has his negative side like they are very expensive that`s why most of them are own by a company not by one person. There are some companies that have pelamis like Vattenfall and Pelamis wave power. For a pelamis to work it needs a lot of things like the measurements should be 150x3.5 and it weights 700 tons. There need to be an specific place to place the pelamis and the qualities are 50 metres of depth the current should be of minimum 1 knot and it will produce 750kw in an hour. These pelamis are located are located in Portugal,
