Okay so, let's talk about this, as the topic came up recently at our think tank. In the tropics, surface waters are above 80°F, but at ocean depths of In a recent issue of Nature, Lovelock and Rapley suggested using wave-powered pumps to bring up water from the deeps to sequester carbon. We know, ocean waves carries a large amount of energy. The notion of harnessing energy from the sea has captured the human imagination for years. Ocean renewable energy mainly consists of the following three types: tidal energy, wave energy , and ocean thermal energy conversion(OTEC). A pilot plant is being developed at Port Fairy in Victoria using the BioWave wave energy converter. OPT is planning for deployment of a Mark 3 PowerBuoy® wave energy conversion system off the coast of Oregon, and Mr. The WEC is a new, highly efficient technology that harnesses the immense, renewable energy contained in ocean waves. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) extracts solar energy through a heat engine operating across the temperature difference between warm surface water and cold deep water. It had discovered that Like this, there are certain devices called as wave energy converters, which is used to convert wave energy into useful form of energy. But with interest in renewable energy at an all-time high, steps are just now being taken to turn this idea into a reality. Regardless of the massive possibilities, the main systems needed to convert tides and ocean waves directly into electricity is usually experimental and are still in development. Harvesting the Energy of Ocean Waves and Tides. June 4, 2013 krisstokes Earth In spite of the great possibilities, the technologies required to convert tides and waves in to electric energy is normally experimental and still in development. Algorithm Doubles Electricity Yield From Ocean Waves. Regardless of the vast potential, the actual technological know-how required to convert tides plus waves directly into electricity is experimental and still in development. What about ocean wave energy surely there will be drawbacks there as well, right, I mean nothing is perfect when it comes to energy conversion.
