Energy production at Mutriku remains constant even if the wave force increases

The EOLO research group of the UPV/EHU-University of the Basque Country has confirmed the increase in the power flow of the waves in the Bay of Biscay from 1900 onwards. It has identified ten types of sea state and has used a statistical model to link them to the output of the Mutriku wave farm. Thus, it has been possible to calculate the amount of electrical power that could have been produced during the 1979-2019 period if these facilities had been operational.
