Harnessing Ocean Currents to Power the Future
As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar have become popular, yet there's a massive, largely untapped resource beneath ...
How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...
Ocean currents and tidal flows don’t just push water. They shape where fish go. Around powerful tidal sites like Canada’s Bay ...
This map of kinetic energy flux shows the global average power density calculated using drifter data in watts per square meter. As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are under ...
PORT EVERGLADES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--An off-shore demonstration with game-changing implications for the future of perpetual clean energy, conducted from May 25 through 28 by OceanBased Perpetual ...
A subpolar gyre is a large-scale ocean current system located at high latitudes created by a persistent region of low atmospheric pressure. These gyres circulate water in a cyclonic direction – ...

Ocean currents can generate electricity, and our study shows Africa's seas have some of the strongest
The world's oceans cover more than 70% of Earth's surface. They're filled with currents, some much stronger than the fastest flowing large rivers. These currents can be harnessed as clean, marine ...
