Indonesia strives for a renewable energy share of 23% by 2025. One option to contribute to this goal is Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC). Despite a global theoretical potential of up to 30 TW, its economically deployable share remains unknown. This paper proposes a novel methodology, which enables to determine OTEC’s economic potential for any regional scope considering…

Extensive temperature readings were obtained to determine suitable OTEC power plant sites in the Philippines. An analysis of temperature profiles reveals that surface seawater is in the range of 25 to 29°C throughout the year while seawater at 500 to 700 m depth remains at a low temperature of 8 to 4°C, respectively. In this article, 14 suitable sites within the Philippine seas are suggested.…

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is an energy generation technology that uses cold deep ocean water (DOW) and warm surface water to produce electricity. Active development of OTEC was started in the 1970s with Hawaii as a major research and development center. In the following several decades, small pilot-scale closed-cycle and open-cycle OTEC plants were successfully designed,…

Process and Technology Status – Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) technologies use the temperature difference between warm seawater at the surface of the ocean, and cold seawater at between 800–1000 metres (m) depth to produce electricity. The warm seawater is used to produce a vapour that acts as a working fluid to drive turbines. The cold water is used to condense the vapour and ensure…

AQUATIC renewable energy is an emerging technology with great applicability in coastal areas and communities with high water resource potential. [1] explains that there are not yet mature standards and guidelines for the development and testing of these devices, however, marine energy is a complex sector that encompasses a wide landscape of energy solutions. In the same vein, [2] argues that…
