“…For example, to capture the movement of energy from waves, a wave turbine is used by changing the wave motion which always moves back and forth in two directions in one wave period, which lasts in seconds. The turbines used are usually well turbines of the oscillating water column type, both on the beach and floating in the middle of the sea, floating turbines of the heave rider or wave rider type, or pendulum type turbines [4,5], and to capture energy from ocean currents using a device in the form of vertical turbines [6,7] and horizontal turbines [8] which are installed by means of being driven or moored at sea. However, there is also research similar to this research, only the specimen model is different, namely regarding the Hybrid Wave and Current Energy Converter (HWCEC) design, which is used to extract energy from ocean waves and currents simultaneously by combining the absorber point and horizontal turbine axis into a single unit [9],…”

Indonesia has abundant sources of renewable energy from ocean currents and waves, or a mixture of currents and waves at certain times to be used as an energy source for power plants. So at the Indonesian Hydrodynamics Laboratory, a study has been carried out to determine the performance of the Darrieus-type vertical axis turbine model to utilize the energy of ocean currents and waves. But the Darrieus Turbine with the turbine blades positioned perpendicular to the turbine axis cannot rotate if there is only wave force. Then several turbine models were made with the placement of the blades in an inclined position, to produce optimal rotor rotation in current conditions or a mixture of currents and waves. This paper describes the testing of 3 turbine models by varying the angle of inclination of the turbine blades (45°, 60°, and 75°), but still having the same turbine rotor area and giving different input currents and wave periods to produce the best efficiency and rotation in absorb current energy or a mixture of current and wave energy. The test results show that the 3 models of slanted blade turbines can absorb both wave and current energy, but turbines with 75° blade inclination produce the best performance compared to the others when exposed to currents and waves
