| Summary: | The ocean one of the most perpetual sources of energy and
has already been exploited on a small scale. Some
technologies are being developed to exploit the large
potential of this energy source. This paper will focus on
ocean energy as an alternative source in Malaysia. The
current development of various devices to extract the
ocean energy will be reviewed. Although technologies are
currently being developed in the areas of tidal power, wave
power, thermal energy gradient, current energy, winds and
salinity gradient, not all of these are suitable for Malaysian sea areas. This paper surveys the available Malaysian oceanographic data and identifies the potential sources of
energy. |
