Evolution Trend Research of Global Ocean Power Generation Based on a 45-Year Scientometric Analysis

Abstract: Since 1973, studies have explored ocean power generation from different perspectives. However, in the past 45 years, few studies have attempted to comprehensively review the existing studies on ocean power generation using wave energy, tidal current energy, ocean thermal energy, salinity gradient energy, bio-mass energy, and gas hydrates. In this study, we collected 5262 studies published from 1973 to 2018 for scientometric visualization analysis and drew a knowledge map of the ocean power generation field. Th… Show more

“…Each of these energy resources is distributed globally. Tidal current energy, utilizing tides, is predictable many years in advance, which provides a reliable resource with significantly greater in its energy density compared to other renewable energy [2,3]. In addition, tidal current energy allows designers to limit visual exposure, acoustic disturbances and to reduce environmental impacts.…”
