Abstract:

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions becomes a top priority in the world with the emergence of global warming and environmental problems. Thus, a variety of renewable energy appears during the last decades. The Ocean, which covers two-thirds of the world, captures and stores huge amounts of energy which could satisfy 5 times of world energy demand. During the last 10 years, various Marine Current Energy Conversion Systems (MCECSs) have been developed around the world. In this paper, the marine current energy and its extraction forms are briefly presented. Then, various projects are classified into two categories, geared drive train system and direct drive train system, according to the different generators. The mainly characteristics of the different generators are also discussed. The relative converters are future presented. According to this paper, the researchers will easily find that the Permanent Magnet Synchrous Generator (PMSG) and Induction Generator (IG) are preferred in MCECS.
