dc.description.abstractNowadays 93% of world energy consumption relies on non renewable energy such as fuel, natural gas and coal. Fossil fuel that be burned is polluted to the atmosphere due to the combination of the gases that occurred continuously and it will cause negative effect to the environment and human itself. Diseases such as cancer and skin disease are the most well known as the effects from the polluted gases. To overcome this situation, development of renewable energy such as solar, wind and wave are intensified in many countries and also in Malaysia. Malaysia, which is country surrounded by water has a capability to develop energy converter using wave from ocean. Specialties of wave in Malaysia are it generates high current, strong wind and large scale of wave due to the monsoon season. This makes Malaysia has capability in producing wave energy as it alternative energy. The purpose of this study is to analyse on the wave energy ofTerengganu coastal area and Pulau Langkawi and to determine the potentiality of the areas in developing wave energy converter. Methods that will be used for data collection in this study are by sampling and data analysis of wave height and time peak at targeted locations using an instrument called AWAC (Acoustic Wave and Current Recorder). Non-sinusoidal energy flux equation will be used to determine the production of energy flux due to wave height and time peak. Expected result for this study is Terengganu coastal area and Pulau Langkawi will capable in developing wave energy converter.en_US
