Oceans of Motion
Waves and rivers are th
e most continuous motions we can find naturally on earth. Never ceasing in their flow, in their back and forth… Research on marine technologies seems a solid energy promise, as the main weakness of renewables is the insecurity of supply due to the uncertainty of its ‘natural happening’ but the ocean has an ongoing motion. Even on the calmest days, currents and waves linger on their action.
Oceans store unbearable power and cover great part of the planet. As a fast thought, turbines at wave-crashing sites or rooted pendulums that are swayed resembling algae should be able to gather energy. Imagine entire fields of these ‘algae pendulums’ generating constant energy from the ocean’s ground!
The con to this renewable would be the possible ecological impact on marine ecosystems that should be thoroughly avoided. Maintenance could also be challenging, due to its underwater location and the corrosiveness of sea water.
