  2. Ocean thermal energy conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Ocean_thermal_energy_conversion

    An ocean thermal energy conversion power plant built by Makai Ocean Engineering went operational in Hawaii in August 2015. The governor of Hawaii, David Ige, "flipped the switch" to activate the plant. This is the first true closed-cycle ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) plant to be connected to a U.S. electrical grid.

  3. Mist lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mist_lift

    In closed systems, the expense of the exchangers represents the largest cost of the OTEC plant, with a 100MW plant requiring 200 exchangers the size of 20 foot shipping containers. [ 9 ] In 2010, Makai Ocean Engineering was contracted to construct computer models to evaluate whether a Mist lift power generation plant would be competitive with ...

  4. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Act - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Thermal_Energy...

    The Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Act of 1980 (OTECA) is an act authorized by Congress to address ocean thermal conversion. It is one of six acts enacted by the Energy Security Act of 1980. [ 1 ] Ocean thermal energy conversion is the extraction of energy from the thermal differentials of subsea and surface water in regions with tropical oceans.

  5. Osmotic power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmotic_power

    Similar to the open cycle in ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC). The disadvantage of this cycle is the cumbersome problem of a large diameter turbine (75 meters +) operating at below atmospheric pressure to extract the power between the water with less salinity & the water with greater salinity.

  6. Deep water source cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_water_source_cooling

    Cornell University's Lake Source Cooling System uses Cayuga Lake as a heat sink to operate the central chilled water system for its campus and to also provide cooling to the Ithaca City School District. [3] The system has operated since the summer of 2000 and was built at a cost of $55–60 million. It cools a 14,500 ton (51 megawatt) load. The ...

    Chappell Roan 'Carpools' with parents in the Midwest. The "midwestern princess" herself opens the episode, welcoming Lowe to her native Missouri. The two drive through a classic American landscape ...

  9. Binary cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_cycle

    A binary cycle is a method for generating electrical power from geothermal resources and employs two separate fluid cycles, hence binary cycle. The primary cycle extracts the geothermal energy from the reservoir , and secondary cycle converts the heat into work to drive the generator and generate electricity .
