<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe turbines are anchored to the bottom of the sea and are placed at a depth of about 100 m, so they do not affect maritime traffic, nor are they visible to the eye, as indicated in the following photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The generated energy is carried by cables to the ground, and in case of need to do maintenance, the turbines can be placed on the surface to work better on them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next phase (phase 2) will be to build a first operating system with 40-meter turbines, which will generate 2 MWh of energy, and later, in phase three, place 100 double turbines that are capable of generating 200 MWh., that can feed more than 3,000 homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These turbines are slower than wind turbines so that they affect marine species less, and they have to check that the little noise they generate does not affect the cetaceans that pass through the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is still a lot of work to be done before we can say that it is a viable system for sustainable electricity generation, but the idea seems very good, and fully compatible with solar and wind generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From the studies done on the Kuroshio Current that passes through Japan, they believe that they can get more than 200 GWh from it, which is more than half of all the energy that Japan needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are other marine currents in other parts of the world, and it is more than likely that this type of energy can be obtained in other places, but good international cooperation would be necessary for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The energy challenge, like global warming, is a global phenomenon. And so it should be focused so that it is resolved in the shortest possible time. Because, precisely what we do not have is a lot of time to lose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will do it ? I doubt it. We are too selfish.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Views: 27 Lo mismo que existen corrientes de aire que mueven los aerogeneradores y producen energ\u00eda el\u00e9ctrica, existen corrientes submarinas que hasta ahora est\u00e1n desaprovechadas.
