Wave Country Notes

Mexico
The only wave-energy activity in Mexico is the development of a wave-driven seawater pump at the Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnología, U.N.A.M., Unidad Académica Mazatlán. This is to be used to recover isolated coastal areas by flushing them out with fresh seawater. A prototype has been successfully tested on the Pacific coast of the state of Oaxaca and a project has been approved to build and install a pump to flush out the port of Ensenada, on the Baja California Peninsula.
