VIDEO: Methods for harnessing energy from oceans

Environment

The Ocean Energy Systems (OES) has launched a new video that describes how the energy of the ocean can be harnessed.

The Ocean Energy Systems (OES) is an intergovernmental collaboration between countries, which operates under framework established by the International Energy Agency in Paris.

OES consists of 20 member countries. Participants in the OES are specialists from government departments, national energy agencies, research or scientific bodies and academia, nominated by the Contracting Parties.

Check out the video describing ways to harness energy from all forms of ocean renewable resources, such as tides, waves, currents, temperature gradient (ocean thermal energy conversion and submarine geothermal energy) and salinity gradient for electricity generation.
