Hi All
How about these quotes in a recent report by respected independent science writer Sophia Schweitzer in her report titled 'Will Tidal and Wave Energy Ever live up to Their Potential" published in Yale University's October 2015 online bulletin: Environment 360.
"....Ocean waves and tidal movements hold vast amounts of energy. The U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that more than one third of all electricity used in the United States could be drawn from the seas....."
"...(.marine) technology has kept moving forward, which is good news,” says Ted Brekken, an associate professor of energy systems at Oregon State University. “But the big issue is to get the cost down......."
"....a key step in the research and development of tidal- and wave-power devices has been the creation of joint public-private “hubs” where researchers from companies, universities, and government can test marine energy devices....."
"....Multinational companies with the wherewithal to take the marine industry to the next level are making significant acquisitions. In 2013, the French energy giant DCNS acquired Open Hydro, which now has nearly one gigawatt of marine energy projects under development worldwide...."
Keeping the cost of wave energy converters down and, developing projects in collaboration with marine energy scientists, sound familiar?
