Science & Technology
   

The history of utilization of ocean energy can be traced back at least to the Middle Age. Early in the 11th century, primitive tidal water cart had been operated in region of Goar, Andalusia and coastal area of England. Utilization Concept on wave energy and temperature differential energy has been pointed out early in the end of the 19th century. But large scale of development and research on ocean energy were conducted after 1950s, firstly covering the area of tidal energy, and then the current energy and temperature differential energy.

Ocean energy has the most varieties in renewable energy. Its basic conversion theory relates to many academic science including hydrodynamics and hydromechanics, engineering thermal physics and electric chemistry.
