The invention pertains to underwater energy plants utilizing water movement due to e.g. waves, tide or stream. The invention also relates to parts of such a plant, namely an underwater wing for capturing wave energy, apparatus to convert the mechanical energy to electrical energy, and a connector for transferring the electrical energy. In certain embodiments of the invention, a wing causes a moment around hinging axis due to water flow with autonomous or tethered in-hinge electric generator and underwater attachable high power electric connector based on inductive transfer of energy. |
