Research Report on Ocean Energy Available for Purchase

This Press Release reports on Research and Markets announced its 2005 report of the Ocean Energy Report Tidal, Wave, Ocean Thermal, Marine Current. According to the press release:

The report outlines these technologies, with their state of development as technologies and industries. The status of each industry is described in each country where it has a base or is under trial.

A key fact now emerging is the need to transfer technology and know-how
from the existing offshore industry to the new marine renewable energy
industry. The offshore oil and gas industry has already contributed
substantially to the development of offshore wind power technology. It is also
becoming clear to many companies in the offshore oil & gas industry that with
resource depletion, their future lies in a capability to diversify their
skills and services into future renewable energy sources. This coincidence of
needs is becoming a key driver to the development of marine renewables.
