transmission alternatives for offshore Electrical Power
Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2009Co-Authors: Inigo Martinez De Alegria, J L Martin, Inigo Kortabarria, Jon Andreu, Pedro Ibanez ErenoAbstract:The oceans represent a huge energy reservoir. Although today all of the marine Power projects are very near from the shore and they are rated at low Power, the huge potential of the seas may in a not very distant future bring marine Power further into the sea. Also offshore oil and gas exploration is moving into deeper waters and at longer distances from land. New carbon sequestration projects under the seabed are on the way which require a vast amount of electric Power consumption. The substitution of offshore Power generators by Power provided from the grid may have environmental benefits, but the deployment of offshore transmission of bulk Electrical Power to or from offshore platforms to the Electrical grid onshore is a mayor challenge. The main objective of this paper is to focus on trends that can lead to a feasible transmission system in offshore energy systems far from land, and to introduce the technological alternatives which could help to reach that goal. The paper describes the main alternatives and the technical and economical aspects of the transmission of Electrical Power offshore.

thermoelectrics an environmentally friendly source of Electrical Power
Renewable Energy, 1999Co-Authors: D M RoweAbstract:A thermoelectric generator is a unique heat engine in which charge carriers serve as the working fluid. It has no moving parts, is silent in operation and very reliable. However, its relatively low efficiency (typically around 5%) has restricted its use to specialised medical, military and space applications where cost is not a main consideration. During the past 10 years thermoelectrics has attracted increasing attention as a ‘green’ and flexible source of electricity able to meet a wide range of Power requirements. Relatively recently it has been realised that in situations where the supply of heat is cheap or free, as in the case of waste heat, efficiency of the conversion system is not an overriding consideration. The use of waste heat as an energy source particularly at temperatures below 140C substantially increase the commercial competitiveness of this method of generating Electrical Power. The results of a recent investigation of the performance of thermoelectric generating systems Powered by waste hot water indicate that, over a three year operating period, Electrical Power can be produced by this method and at a price which matches that of conventional utilities. This paper provides an overview of environmentally friendly applications of thermoelectric generation and assess its potential as an alternative source of Electrical Power.
