Forms of Ocean Energy:
There are three basic types that allow us to use ocean for its energy.
1. wave energy, wave power
2. Ocean tidal power (ocean high and low tides),
3. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion, OTEC). Also sometimes referred to as ocean energy or ocean power)
The term marine energy encompasses both wave power — power from surface waves, and tidal power — obtained from the kinetic energy of large bodies of moving water. Offshore wind power is not a form of marine energy, as wind power is derived from the wind, even if the wind turbines are placed over water. The oceans have a tremendous amount of energy and are close to many if not most concentrated populations. Ocean energy has the potential of providing a substantial amount of new renewable energy around the world. The oceans represent a vast and largely untapped source of energy in the form of surface waves, fluid flow, salinity gradients, and thermal.
