Here at Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation, we are driven by our sustainable mission that will improve the lives of millions of people worldwide. Imagine being able to extract the solar energy trapped in the world’s tropical oceans and use it as a renewable power source. Our Company was formed to commercialize global Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) and Seawater Air Conditioning (SWAC) opportunities that will provide real practical solutions to mankind’s three oldest and most fundamental needs: clean drinking water, plentiful food, and sustainable energy solutions without the use of fossil fuel.

Technologies
OTEC
Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is a base-load renewable energy production process particularly suited for tropical zones. It uses the ocean's temperatureLearn more »
Water Production
Potable water production is a natural by-product of the open-cycle power production in an Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) system. In a closed-cycle OTEC system, potable water Learn more »
SWAC
Seawater Air Conditioning (SWAC) is a proven clean method of air conditioning buildings, using cold deep seawater in place of polluting standard refrigerants Learn more »Current Projects
- Desalinization of the deep ocean water in commercial quantities at very competitive rates in comparison to current ocean desalination
- Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) which provides base-load (24/7) power (without fossil fuels) at a cost always better than our customers' next best alternative
- Seawater Air Conditioning (SWAC) using the deep seawater for air conditioning of large structures and buildings (hotels, medical centers, etc.) - this technology uses up to 90% less energy when compared to traditional systems
- Sustainable food production in the form of aquaculture and agriculture projects, utilizing the nutrient rich seawater used in the above mentioned technologies
Common Ground
Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation (OTE) was founded upon the principle that, in seeking common ground, we not only foster a more civil and peaceful world, but ultimately accomplish more in our abilities to address mounting global concerns. The vast majority of people on this planet have the same needs and desires for themselves and their families: food, clean water, electricity and security. Learn more »
