Ocean Thermal Energy

Ocean Thermal Energy or Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a procedure that generates electricity by the usage of the temperature difference between the deep-freezing ocean or sea cold water and the shore-based tropical warm surface water. The OTEC plant pumps extensive quantities of deep-freezing ocean cold water, and warm surface seawater that is obligatory to run a power cycle and create electricity. OTEC is a (24/7) power initiating firm, a sustainable energy source and capable of supplying enormous levels of energy.
