Ocean Energy Plants

 

The images below shows arrangements of ocean energy devices for the utilization of ocean wave, current, tidal and thermal energy.

  

The energy devices (yellow) are moored to a modular buoy system which is arranged to minimize the mooring line forces and horizontal displacement of the devices. The electrical power generated by the devices is transferred by a subsea cable along the seafloor to the electricity grid onshore. The performance of the devices may be remotely monitored and controlled via the subsea cable.

Applications:

Examples of application of ocean energy include generation of electricity, providing energy for seafood and aquaculture plants, production of freshwater from seawater, purification of seawater, and production of hydrogen.
