With water encompassing over 70 percent of the Earth, it would make sense to try and gain alternative energy from the ocean. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion or OTEC is a way to do just that. French engineer Jacques D’Arsonval is the brainchild of the idea. In 1881, he felt that Read more…
The energy crunch is a real worldwide crisis as fossil fuel supplies decrease and populations increase. Utility costs are going up in pace with the increasing demand for electricity. It’s no wonder that the alternative energy arena is a quickly growing market with millions of dollars invested every year. And Read more…
With today’s ever growing concern over pollution, high fuel costs (Don’t let the recent decline fool you), and sustainability of our natural resources, we must look to alternatives to ease or eliminate our dependence on the things that cause those concerns to begin with. Oil and coal are our two Read more…
The OTEC association, standing for the conversion of ocean thermal energy, was founded by French engineer called Jacques D’Arsonval back in 1881. The only remaining plant that is still a member of the OTEC is based in Hawaii and represented a natural energy laboratory. OTEC represents a source that can Read more…
