Does the Blue Economy offer opportunities for offshore energy storage?
The blue economy promises opportunities for offshore energy storage, notably through ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) and compressed air energy storage (CAES). Moreover, the capacity of data-driven optimization and artificial intelligence to enhance storage efficiency is discussed.
Why do we need a storage system for Ocean Energy?
Ocean energies such as tidal, wave, and offshore wind need storage technologies that can compensate for intermittency in power generation . These renewable resources are relatively predictable, being influenced by periodic natural cycles, and thus require compatible storage integration .
Can energy storage help build a green and Secure Blue Economy?
Henceforth, as ocean observing systems, offshore aquaculture, and electric shipping industries sustain themselves (Table 2), state-of-the-art and resilient energy storage technology will become indispensable for building a green and secure blue economy [64, 74, 79].
Should energy storage systems be incorporated into ocean-based energy systems?
To support this growth in a sustainable way, energy storage systems must be incorporated into ocean-based energy systems in order to improve resilience, reliability, and decarbonization within the blue economy.
Can energy storage technologies be integrated with ocean-based sectors?
Previous research has tended to focus on energy storage technologies innovations in isolation, with limited attention to their integration with ocean-based sectors such as offshore renewables, marine transportation, aquaculture, and emerging technologies including super-capacitors, hybrid systems, and hydrogen fuel cells.
