Original: Global OTEC’s PLOTEC Prototype Survives Year of Storms off Gran Canaria
Global OTEC reports that its PLOTEC prototype platform withstood a full year of storm conditions off the coast of Gran Canaria, marking a key durability milestone for ocean thermal energy conversion technology. The company says the survival of the floating structure through harsh Atlantic weather demonstrates that its design can endure real offshore conditions, a crucial step toward commercial deployment of OTEC power systems.
Why now: The successful year-long survival test is a significant proof point for the viability of ocean thermal energy technology.
