In China, there are several research projects on ocean energy, wave and tidal, in progress.
Three ocean energy test sites are being developed in the country. Its already existing Jiangxia Tidal Power Plant was upgraded from 3.9 MW to 4.1 MW in August 2015, and a 100 kW Sharp Eagle Wanshan converter was deployed in November 2015.
