Tidal and Marine Energy

NOAA is responsible for the licensing of OTEC facilities.

Power is generated on tidal inflows into the 30km2 basin with the help of ten 25.4MW submerged bulb turbines.

Some wave energy converters use buoys to capture energy from the ocean's vertical and horizontal movement

A tidal barrage is a dam-like structure used to capture the energy from masses of water moving in and out of a bay or river due to tidal forces.
