Abstract
This paper presents the design and simulation of the boost converter for a Wave Energy Conversion System (WECS). The system consists of wave energy conversion device, boost converter and DC Load. The converter is designed to ensure that the output voltage of WECS will be boosted up from a variable input voltage to a stable output voltage. The simulation models have been developed and tested in the MATLAB / SIMULINK. Simulation result has proven that, the proposed design is able to produce a constant output voltage from variable input voltage.
