  • Abstract
    Although the largest blocks of ocean extracted energy are from the tides, research emphasis has been directed during the last decade towards OTEC. Actual placing in service of small OTEC plants has occurred. Progress has been made in tidal power plants construction and new views expressed for their operation; new centrals were put into operation in China and Canada. Other sources remain under sustained study.
