The first onshore wave power pilot station in the US opens today in LA

This is definately a project to keep an eye out and see how it goes.

If I got this right, the floaters were placed incide the breakwater. So, how can they estimate the impact on the actual marine life of the area (plants, fish, their migration routes, marine mammals etc), meaning outside the breakwater, where the positioning is optimal.

If we consider the the term triple planetary crisis to be a valid one, then we cannot exclude the impact on the local biodiversity and ecosystems of the green energy projects, for example. It looks like in this article they are not even mentioned.
