When I was doing a project during my first degree, I looked in to using wave-generated power in the UK as a way of getting lots of renewable energy. As part of this I used the theory we learned to estimate the total available wave power all around the UK coastline (it’s a lot as our coast is very wiggly!). It turned out this matched almost exactly with official/government estimates, so I was quite pleased that I’d been able to get so close!
