In order to use the renewable wave energy source more effiiciently and develop the Wave Energy Converters, the paper introduces the important work of Wave Energy Converters and the mooring system in UK, which is the resarch of wave energy of the world. The principles and applications of several main Wave Energy Converters have been described, and the contructon and recent developments of the mooring system also have been summarized. Otherwise, the current research emphases and suggestions in this field have been discussed for reference.
