China achieves breakthrough in ocean thermal energy power generation

STORY: China achieves breakthrough in ocean thermal energy power generation DATELINE: Sept. 13, 2023 LENGTH: 00:01:14 LOCATION: GUANGZHOU, China CATEGORY: TECHNOLOGY SHOTLIST: 1. various of the device STORYLINE: Chinese scientists and engineers have completed an offshore test of an ocean thermal energy electricity generation device in the South China Sea. The 20 kW device, developed chiefly by the Guangzhou Marine Geological Survey (GMGS) under direct control of the China Geological Survey, has returned to Guangzhou, capital city of the southern Guangdong Province, after the test was completed. During the test, the device generated electricity for four hours and 47 minutes, reaching a maximum power output of 16.4 kW. "This offshore test verified the theoretical viability of the indigenously-developed ocean thermal energy power generation system, as well as its practicability, marking a crucial step in China's journey to develop and harness ocean thermal energy, from the land test stage to offsh
