Ecotricity plans to rule the waves

Ecotricity, the green energy company specialising in wind turbines, is turning to wave power.

It wants to make 200 pumps, each 60ft high, to create enough electricity to power 236,000 homes.

The submerged pumps pipe water ashore, where power is generated.

The move follows the acquisition by Ecotricity founder Dale Vince of a controlling interest in the business behind Searaser.

Vince said he believed Searaser had the potential to produce electricity cheaper than any other type of generator.
