Practically none, since a tsunami is generated by seismic events (earthquakes) and would seldom exceed heights of 1 meter while in the open sea. High waves breaking in a shallow harbor might generate modest winds, but in a very confined area and not capable of doing any real damage (especially compared to the wave damage).

How can wind form tsunami?

Wind can't form a tsunami. A tsunami is only caused by a large displacement of water. This is done only by an earthquake, a volcano eruption, a landslide, or a meteorite impact.

What is the source of energy for these waves?

The source of energy for ocean waves is primarily wind. Wind blowing across the surface of the ocean transfers its energy to the water, creating waves. The size and strength of the waves depend on factors such as wind speed, duration, and the distance over which the wind blows.


How much energy can be stored from the tsunami?

It doesn't seem practical to try to "store" energy from a one-time event such as a tsunami - you may have to wait years for this event. Storing the energy is, precisely, a great problem. It is much better to look for regular sources of energy - for example (to mention something not yet used) the energy that supplies lightning.
