Marine Renewable Energies: Perspectives and Implications for Marine Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Countries with coastlines may have valuable renewable energy resources in the form of tides, currents, waves, and offshorewind.The potential to gather energy from the sea has recently gained interest in several nations, so Marine Renewable Energy Installations (hereinafter MREIs) will likely become very diffuse in the near future and determine a ...

Life Cycle Assessment of Electricity Generation from an Array of Subsea Tidal Kite Prototypes

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Tidal current technologies have the potential to provide highly predictable energy, since tides are driven by lunar cycles. However, before implementing such technologies on a large scale, their environmental performance should be assessed. In this study,

Capabilities of an Acoustic Camera to Inform Fish Collision Risk with Current Energy Converter Turbines

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
A diversified energy portfolio may include marine energy in the form of current energy converters (CECs) such as tidal or in-river turbines. New technology development in the research stage typically requires monitoring for environmental effects.

Use of a 360-Degree Underwater Camera to Characterize Artificial Reef and Fish Aggregating Effects around Marine Energy Devices

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Marine energy devices must be attached to the seafloor by their foundations, pilings, or anchors, and will have other parts in the water column like the devices themselves, mooring lines, and power export cables running along the seafloor.

Marine Energy Environmental Permitting and Compliance Costs

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Costs to permit Marine Energy projects are poorly understood. In this paper we examine environmental compliance and permitting costs for 19 projects in the U.S., covering the last 2 decades. Guided discussions were conducted with developers over a 3-year

Expected Effects of Offshore Wind Farms on Mediterranean Marine Life

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2016
Current climate policy and issues of energy security mean wind farms are being built at an increasing rate to meet energy demand. As wind farm development is very likely in the Mediterranean Sea, we provide an assessment of the offshore wind potential ...
