Norsk Hydro to create wave farm energy in Portugal

I have heard wave farms mentioned from time to time but admit I am still learning more about them. The idea of using something so natural to generate power is exciting so I will be eager to follow this program. What I also find interesting here is that Norsky Hydro is famous for being an oil company. They are investing a lot of money into this initial pilot project in Portugal and have plans to extend the program to create more clean power. As you see in the linked article, Norway is the 3rd largest oil exporting country in the world and now they are moving into clean energy.

If only more petroleum companies or oil exporting countries would look for future solutions such as this we would all be a lot better off. Istead we see the likes of Shell, BP, Exxon, Total, etc all leading our governments by the nose and creating problems/conflict for the future.
