This paper discusses the historical and recent development of wave energy utilization, and compares the characteristics of different wave power take-offs(PTOs), such as hydraulic, pneumatic, gear-box and direct-drive PTOs, which are classified by the form of energy transformation. Furthermore, it is particularly focused on the direct-drive PTO which has great potential in offshore high-power grid-connecting application, on analyzing its structures and the control schemes of optimizing power capture, on summarizing and comparing the linear generators and different control schemes of power optimizing. It is also described and analyzed that the processing schemes of the power fluctuation of direct-drive wave power, according to the control requirements of the grid. In addition, this paper concludes with application prospects and future developments of wave power, especially the direct-drive system.
