Since Malta depends totally on the imports of fossil fuels for the provision of energy, it would be worthwhile if another source of energy acquisition be considered for the Maltese Islands. Transforming the energy of waves into usable energy is a valuable source of energy that is constantly present, in the sea waves. This is formed by the wind energy which is transmitted to the sea causing the formations of waves, which then is transported towards the coasts. This source of energy is considered to be a clean and safe source of power which could be explored and exploited in Malta. Since the Maltese Islands get rough high sea waves due to the high winds of 96 km/h this could be an innovation for Malta to start generating energy from sea waves. Because of climate change, there is a growing interest worldwide for renewable energy, including wave energy.
