Summary
There is a consensus between public opinion, governments and private investors on the need to promote clean sources of energy. Denmark is a pioneer in the development and production of electricity from wind power, but the development of wave power plants is still at the prototype stage. However, it is a reality in the Basque Country with the Mutriku Wave Power Plant that is operative since July 2011. The objective is to improve the electricity forecasting methods using the Mutriku's data for years 2018-2019.
