Abstract
This study seeks to identify areas with potential new marine energy in the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia, focusing on the states of Perak and Selangor. The sources of marine energy discussed in this study are from the wave and tidal. The data relating to the new marine energy was collected from the related government departments involved and then was analyzed by using Microsoft Excel software to plot graphs of all the non-spatial data. This study also utilised GIS applications to display the potential for wave energy in the specified area. The spatial analysis showed that the despite high potential of harnessing marine energy in the study area and need the support from the power generating equipment to enhance the energy power. From this study, it is concluded that the potential for renewable marine energy from waves and tidal is at the waters of Permatang Sedepa and Port Klang areas.
