Solution

The correct option is A Strong waves
Wave energy would be a viable proposition only where waves are very strong.
Wave power is the capture of energy of wind waves to do useful work, for example, electricity generation, water desalination, or pumping water. Wave-power generation is not a widely employed commercial technology compared to other established renewable energy sources such as wind power, hydropower, and solar power.
