Renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important in the development of technologies for the generation of electricity. This is where the air turbines are located which, depending on their location, are declined as air turbines or, if they use the mass of air displaced by the OWCs, they are installed as Wells turbines. Since the mass of air oscillates, the Wells have the ability to always rotate in the same direction regardless of the direction of the air. In the Mediterranean, where the excursion of the waves level is more modest than the oceanic one, it is necessary to resort to other methodologies such as the implementation of an array of small autonomous turbines that come into operation in a modular way according to the energy of the sea in order to exploit even modest energy.

Abstract
Renewable energy sources are becoming increasingly important in the development of technologies for the generation of electricity. This is where the air turbines are located which, depending on their location, are declined as air turbines or, if they use the mass of air displaced by the OWCs, they are installed as Wells turbines. Since the mass of air oscillates, the Wells have the ability to always rotate in the same direction regardless of the direction of the air. In the Mediterranean, where the excursion of the waves level is more modest than the oceanic one, it is necessary to resort to other methodologies such as the implementation of an array of small autonomous turbines that come into operation in a modular way according to the energy of the sea in order to exploit even modest energy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
