%X Wave energy seems to be one of the most promising alternatives to the current energy issue. Pursuant to this fact, different devices have been developed so as to harness the energy that waves contain. Amongst all of them, Oscillating Water Column-based systems arise as the preferable technology in the scientific world. Many efforts have been made in order to optimize the power extraction. However, there is still a long way to go in many areas, such as the correct turbine selection for a specific power plant. Therefore, this paper is devoted towards the comparison of different turbines existing nowadays for the case study of the Mutriku power plant.
