The increasing demand for renewable energy in tropical regions necessitates innovative solutions to harness available resources effectively. This paper investigates the potential application of Wave Energy Converters (WEC) in the southern waters of Java, Indonesia. The study evaluates four WEC technologies - Point Absorbers, Oscillating Water Columns (OWC), Attenuators, and Overtopping Devices - based on their technical performance, power output, and feasibility for deployment along the southern Java coastline. Simulation results demonstrate that Overtopping Devices and Attenuators are the most suitable technologies for large-scale energy generation, with total power outputs of 10.57 GW and 5.24 GW, respectively, for a 70 km coastline. These findings highlight the feasibility of WEC systems for enhancing energy sustainability in tropical regions like Southern Java. Future work should focus on optimizing system design, conducting pilot projects, and integrating additional renewable energy sources to further enhance system performance. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
