Ocean-based renewable energy could play a big role in decarbonizing the U.S., and healthier oceans can help stabilize the climate, the Ocean Climate Action Plan suggests.
As solar and wind proliferate, the power lurking in the world’s oceans is yet to make waves. In fact, tides could become the next essential energy source.
A collaborative research project to develop predictive models of where vital fish species are found in the Minas Passage hopes to answer questions that could lead to more sustainable tidal energy development.
