Overview
As a new energy option, marine
power generation is attracting attention. Venture companies are pushing the
research forward. One such project involves the development of a
"tuna-shaped tidal turbine which efficiently makes use of ocean flows,
with a shape that resists damage by objects floating in the sea. Elsewhere, a
gyro-type wave power generator is a new technology that extracts energy from
the torque or gyro moment rotation as waves rise and fall at the ocean's
surface.
