Report 4150: Wave & Tidal Report

Report 4150: Wave and Tidal Report focuses on a new class of devices that generate power from ocean waves and tides and from the instream flow of rivers. Collectively, this emerging sub-segment of CCBJ’s low-carbon and renewable power segment is referred to alternately as hydrokinetic energy (power generated with the kinetic energy of moving water instead of the potential energy of stored water) or advanced waterpower (to distinguish the new devices from conventional hydropower), but is also frequently referred to by the more simple term wave & tidal power.

This 23-page report maps out the Wave and Tidal Power Industry with market data breakdowns and forecasts, and the latest trends and strategies derived from executive interviews. Detailed project lists are included together with interviews of development leaders.

While wave and  tidal energy systems will not provide the steady baseload power that geothermal and biomass power can provide, modeling indicates that devices that extract energy from rivers, tides and waves may have higher capacity factors than either wind or solar, promising future growth in the wave and tidal markets.

Illustrated with 5 figures including:
  • New U.S. Hydropower by 2025
  • U.S. Wave Energy Projects
  • Most Attractive Markets for Wave & Tidal Energy
  • Installed and Planned U.S. Tidal Energy Capacity
  • U.S. Wave and Tidal Industry 2007- 2025
