Researcher: Sea Wave Power Could Become

Sea waves will be an alternative option for meeting the needs of electricity in the country. This is based on research conducted Zamrisyaf, research and development center employees State Electricity Company (PLN).
 Since 2002, has initiated research utilization Zamrisyaf wave energy to generate electricity. "The duration of the study due to lack of sponsorship even some research using my own money," said Zamrisyaf during a special interview with VIVAnews.com, Friday, January 21, 2011.
 Zamrisyaf began his research while still working in the PLN Region of West Sumatra.Numerous trials have been done before his work is patented intellectual property centers Andalas University in 2002.
The idea of ​​utilizing ocean waves, her story, came by accident when he was asked the Mentawai Development Foundation to find the source of micro-hydro power (MHP) mid-1990.
 His trip to the Mentawai is fruitless because none of the sources of water that can be used as power plants.
However, travel by boat from Padang to Mentawai to inspire him about the power of the waves. "In the journey I felt the sway of the ship tossed by ocean waves oscillate. Nature speak my mind, that this ship and heavy laden udders swaying with the ocean waves, ocean wave energy is large enough, "he said.
 Since then, he thought, to accommodate the wave energy into mechanical energy that generates electricity.Although not yet found the right technology, the sea trip from Padang to Jakarta to give a new discovery linked pendulum technology to generate electricity.
 The tool is named Sea Wave Power-pendulum system (PLTG-SB). He claimed to have conducted research for four times starting in 2002, 2003, 2006, and 2007. At trial in 2007 in Cote Ulak Karang Padang, built a tool that can generate electricity of 300 watts although it can not be said to be successful.
 "God willing, this year (2011) our laboratory tests in the lab Shipping and Marine ITS (Insititut Technology Surabaya)," he said. He targeted, in 2012, these findings PTGL-SB can be used for industrial scale.
 Compared with similar-SB PLTGL growing abroad, according to him, the resulting instrument has a striking difference.Turbine and the pendulum mounted on a pontoon as the float container plant is neither affected by sea water. This gives the striking effectiveness of the security tool used.
 The workings of this tool is quite interesting. Pontoon that serves as a ship carrying a pendulum that is integrated with the dynamo. To produce the maximum armature rotation, the pendulum is assisted by means of transmission and interface the double-freewheel with the help of chains.
 Every movement of sea water so that the pendulum will shake the double-freewheel drive to rotate a dynamo generating electricity. "If it had been successful with both economic investment would be similar to hydroelectric power plants," said Zamri.
 He noted, this tool is very environmentally friendly and can move at any time in accordance with the wishes of (mobile). Related to the power generated, he claimed, the tool is expected to produce up to 100,000 watts of power for a single generating unit.
 This tool has been presented Zamrisyaf before the President some time ago.
