  • Abstract
    Marine energy generation technologies include offshore wind, wave, and tidal energy generation, which are considered to be the fundamental renewable generation technologies for the long-term aim to reduce our climate´s CO2 emissions. Hence, marine energy is the key to develop future sustainable energy supply.
