A WIND AND WAVE ENERGY PLANT

摘要

A wind and wave energy plant (1) comprises a windmill with a rotor (3) and a wave-actuated water pump that can drive a turbine whose output shaft is in driving connection with an electric generator. The windmill includes a tubular mill tower (2), which is firmly anchored to the seabed and encloses a storage tank between the sea surface and the mill rotor (3), which tank can be filled with water by means of the pump via a non-return valve, and from which water can be led to the turbine.
