VARIABILITY BETWEEN WIND AND SEA WAVES BASED ON ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY AS RENEWABLE ENERGY IN PARIAMAN CITY

The coastal waters of Pariaman City, directly linked to the Indian Ocean, hold-a significant potential for harnessing energy from wind and sea waves. This study aims-to identify an eco-friendly alternative energy source derived from wind and sea waves-to reduce reliance on traditional fossil fuels such as oil and coal. The wind and sea wave-patterns in this area exhibit considerable promise with wind speeds ranging from 0.2 to-11.5 m/s. Additionally, the sea wave heights are notable, particularly in October, where-they range from 0.65 to 1.7 m annually. These natural features can be leveraged to generate-electrical energy through wind and ocean wave power plants. The substantial renewable-energy potential, largely influenced by recurring cycles such as monsoons, offers a bright-future for energy sustainability in Pariaman City
