Why collect only one kind of energy when you can collect them all? These solar, wind, tide power generating islands are still conceptual but could be the wave of the future (pun intended). The idea is to harness as many alternative energy sources as possible – all at the same time. In addition to the typical basics these floating energy islands would also draw on the temperature differentials in surrounding water to generate thermal power.
Here are sixteen of the most innovative, creative and cutting edge tidal, wave and hydroelectric power designs currently pushing the alternative energy envelope.
Could we one day harness the awesome power of tidal waves with sea-bound platforms? One designer thinks this method could be the answer for clean power.
Unlike solar and wind power generators, an earth energy biomass or geothermal power system is often completely invisible in the finished design of a building.
