Findings, Recommendations and Model Policy Framework 330 $aWave, tidal and offshore wind technologies have long held the promise of seemingly limitless energy supplies. In practice, while offshore wind is growing relatively rapidly, all three sectors have lagged behind expectations. This book, from the International Energy Authority Renewable Energy Technology Deployment implementing agreement (IEA-RETD), examines the reasons for this and suggests how barriers to deployment might be overcome. Beginning with an assessment of the marine energy resource, it provides a detailed introduction to the main technologies currently being employed to harness wind 606 $aElectric power-plants, Offshore 606 $aOcean energy resources 606 $aOcean energy resources 606 $aOffshore electric power plants 606 $aOffshore electric power plants 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aWind power 606 $aWind power 606 $aOcean energy resources 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aWind power 606 $aOffshore electric power plants 606 $aMechanical Engineering$2HILCC 606 $aEngineering & Applied Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aMechanical Engineering - General$2HILCC 615 4$aElectric power-plants, Offshore. 615 4$aOcean energy resources. 615 4$aOcean energy resources. 615 4$aOffshore electric power plants. 615 4$aOffshore electric power plants. 615 4$aRenewable energy sources. 615 4$aRenewable energy sources. 615 4$aWind power. 615 4$aWind power. 615 0$aOcean energy resources 615 0$aRenewable energy sources 615 0$aWind power 615 0$aOffshore electric power plants 615 7$aMechanical Engineering 615 7$aEngineering & Applied Sciences 615 7$aMechanical Engineering - General 676 $a333.91/45 676 $a333.9145 712 02$aIEA-RETD (Organization) 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828461103321 996 $aOffshore Renewable Energy$93998409 997 $aUNINA
