`Sea snakes' could produce power

Engineers are hoping to open the first commercial wavefarm 3 miles off Agucadoura in Portugal.

3 `sea snakes', each as long as a commuter train will produce electricity which will go into the national grid.

The machines were built by Pelamis wave power.

300 of these machines could light up 350,000 homes.
