Ocean Current Energy Generation

Ocean current energy generation harnesses the continuous movement of ocean waters to produce electricity. Underwater turbines, similar to wind turbines, are placed in strong currents to capture kinetic energy as water flows past. As the currents move the turbines, they spin generators that convert mechanical energy into electrical power. This renewable energy source offers a consistent and predictable way to generate electricity, utilizing the vast and renewable power of ocean currents without producing greenhouse gases. It's a promising approach to diversify energy sources while respecting marine ecosystems.
