However, it seems that we’ve picked most of the low-lying hydroelectric fruit, and now the focus shifts to capturing the power in oceans and rivers.A wholeslew of ocean/wave power technologies is being developed, and although they haven’t come to reality just yet, there is a lot of potential – mostly because the ocean is huge, and as long as a technology can be brought to scale, the general consensus is that there is plenty of energy to tap.
