The growing energy crisis forced people to find new renewable energy which can substitute for mineral oil and other non-renewable energy what we rely on currently. Wave energy got much attention in the field of new energy development, because of its enormous reserves, development feasibility and potential economic benefits.China’s total coastline is 32,000 kilometers long. There is much wealth of the wave energy resources distribute in the long coastline and inshore waters. If it be development and utilization of the wave energy, it must be able to alleviate to some extent, China is about to face the energy crisis in the future. In this paper we introduced one kind of floating wave energy conversion system. At first we designed a control system which could be able to simulate the different sea state and optimized the energy conversion link of the floating wave energy conversion systems. Then we verified the effect of optimization of the system to stabilize the power output by experiment. And we tested the influence of different wave parameters on the operating status of the floating wave energy systems by wave simulation system and analyzed the test results and concluded them. Finally, we proposed the direction and content of the future research.
