Ocean Thermal Energy Converters (OTECs)

Perhaps the most ambitious and world changing undertaking of the Celestopea ProjectTM is the creation of a grid of Ocean Thermal Energy Convertors (OTECs) to power the world into the 21st century and beyond. OTECs take advantage of the perpetual difference between the temperature at the surface of the tropical oceans and the cooler temperature 3,000 to 4,000 feet below the surface.

This temperature variation is used to generate completely pollution free electricity, from an inexhaustible renewable source. In fact, each day, the 23 million square miles of tropical ocean absorbs an amount of solar energy equal in heat content to 250 billion barrels of oil. By way of comparison, all the countries of the world together consume about 65 million barrels of oil each day. If our worldwide grid of OTECs are only able to extract 1/10th of 1% of the daily solar radiation, they will produce 20 times the daily amount of electricity currently consumed by the United States.
