A Report From the World's First Commercial Wave Farm

The Portugese government has constructed the world's first commercial wave farm for the production of electricity. It is said that the facility will be on-line by the end of the year, and will provide enough energy to power 2,000 homes. This might be a case where more energy is required to create the facility then it will ever produce, but it appears that there is excitement about this program and others being constructed around the world. The program should draw the attention of many other countries that are blessed with ample coastline but few resources.

See pictures and a brief summary here.
