Marine Energy Resource Assessment and Characterization
WEBThere are three levels of resource assessments: Theoretical resource potential- annual average amount of physical energy that is hypothetically available. Technical resource potential- portion of a theoretical resource that can be captured using a specific technology.
Step 2: Renewable Energy Resource Assessment
WEBThe goal of step 2 is to estimate the renewable energy resource potential and identify a set of study areas (and associated supply curves) capable of supporting high levels of clean energy development.
