Very little ! While wave-power is a clean way of generating electricity, sadly, people think more about whether wave generators will spoil the view, than generating cleaner energy !

What does wave energy power?
Wave power produces renewable energy, that is, electricity. This is the same electricity that we use every day, so wave power can power our heaters, coolers, electric cars, trains and planes and everything that runs on electricity.
How the UK make electricity?
The majority of he UK's electricity is generated by coal or gas-fired power stations. We also use nuclear power, wind and wave generators.
What places can use wave power?
wave energy as in tidal energy? because it is being used! in France and planned for the bay of fundy in canada. erosion does present a problem but theyre working on it. No, wave energy is different. Can be used where there are sufficient waves.
How much electricity power does a vacuum tube use?
not enough
How much electricity does an oil burner use?
It doesn't use any. It burns oil for power.
What are the advantages of a searaser?
searasers are a simple way of producing electricity it isn't using coal,oil or gas (fossil fuels) to produce energy it is simply using wave power the searasers use wave power to pump sea water uphill to a reservoir where the is realeased downhill which turns turbines which generate electricity.
Why should you use wave power?
Wave power, that is, using the motion of ocean waves to generate electricity, has all the advantages of renewable energy. After manufacture and installationIt is pollution free (no carbon dioxide emissions, unlike conventional forms of electricity generation)hence, no contribution to global warming and climate changeit is renewable (the power can be used constantly)its use reduces our dependence and use of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Does a wave power station use renewable energy?
Yes, wave power is renewable.
How much power does it take to power a house?
it takes a lot of electricity because if you use a lot of it,it will cost more money
How much nuclear power does the US use?
It's about 20 percent of total electricity generated
How much nuclear power does Ontario use?
In 2009, nuclear power supplied just over 55% of Ontario's electricity needs, according to Ontario's Independent Electricity System Operator.
Why don't all countries use wave power?
There are a number of reasons why no country actually uses much wave power at the moment. The technology is still not fully worked out. Experimental stations do generate power, but not in significant amounts.
