Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) Cold Water Depth (Summer Average)

This shapefile represents seasonal summer average cold water depth recordings. The cold water is defined by locating the depth that leads to the greatest average annual net power at each location when depth and its corresponding ΔT are input into the power equation. This optim...

Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) delta T (Annual Average)

This shapefile represents annual average delta T estimates. ΔT represents the difference in temperature (°C) between the warm and cold water sources used by an OTEC plant at a specific location. Warm water is defined uniformly as water at a depth of 20 m, while cold water is ...
