It is home to around 260 companies, together directly employing 20,000 people and serves as the home base for Brussels Airlines, Jetairfly and Thomas Cook Airlines Belgium.
Ocean Wave Energy Ocean wave energy is captured directly from surface waves or from pressure fluctuations below the surface. Waves are caused by the wind blowing over the surface of the ocean. In many areas of the world, the wind blows with enough consistency and force to provide continuous waves along the shoreline. Ocean waves contain tremendous energy potential. Wave power devices extract energy from the surface motion of ocean waves or from pressure fluctuations below the surface. Ocean Wave Energy Resource. Wave power varies considerably in different parts of the world.
It is the ocean swell waves that are the best form of wave for Oceanlinx technology. Wave energy is not to be mistaken for tidal energy. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, and have a period of around 12 hours, whereas ocean waves have a period of around 10 seconds. Due to these vast differences the technology required to extract this energy is extremely different.
