Development of hydrokinetic energy technology: A review

Abstract: Summary The drastic change in climatic conditions has led to shift towards the review of sustainable strategies in the renewable energy sector. Hydrokinetic technology has various benefits over the conventional methods, which can be helpful in achieving the desired sustainable development. In the present study, an outline for the conversion of hydrokinetic energy along with its challenges has been discussed. The study comprises of three steps involving collection of properties required for site characterizatio… Show more

“…An extensive literature search on ocean kites, including the recent hydrokinetic energy reviews (Kumar & Sarkar, 2016;Laws & Epps, 2016;Sood & Singal, 2019), reveals only a handful of publications. An economic analysis on Minesto's Deep Green technology for the Agulas Current near South Africa calculated weight/power ratios of 14, 50-600, and 200 Tonnes/MW for Deep Green, conventional marine hydrokinetic (MHK) turbines, and shallow water off-shore wind turbines, respectively (Moodley, Nihontho, Chowdhury, & Chowdhury, 2012).…”

“…Anyway in order to design (mooring structures included), site and operate properly, the environmental risks of these machines must be considered, 25 distinguishing between environmental effects, that is, any potential measurable interactions between tidal energy devices and the marine environment and impacts, responsible of rising to the level of deleterious ecological significance with a high probability. For instance, the wake, introduced by the wide rotors, seems to be harmful for fishes and other submarine fauna 26 not in case of a single turbine, but for array configurations; by the way, the surface vessels and signal stations affect panorama, skylines, shipping and maritime activities, just approaching the wake phenomena in terms of impact on the submarine environment 27,28 induced by the installations structures.…”

“…In recent times, tidal power is considered as the most promising renewable power generation source due to its inherent advantages such as predictability and negligible environmental effects. [1][2][3] The majority of marine current conversion technologies are based on permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG) due to its numerous advantages such as high-power density, low cost, and favorable electricity production. However, the maximum power that can be captured by the marine current turbine is nonlinear and it depends on several factors.…”
