Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Another possibility looms in the near future.  Floating designs are already being tested, and more are on the drawing boards.

Could these floating designs also incorporate wavebob technology to create combined wind and wave power generators?

I'm not familiar with this technology, even after checking the website, but it's doubtful it would be used on a stationary or floating foundation, as the wind turbines need to remain relatively stable.  A site electrical grid could possible be used together, if the power is compatible.

What an involved way of saying i don't really know.  But the reasons for doubt must be addressed.
