3 forms in which energy from ocean is made available for use are
Tidal Energy
Wave Energy
Thermal Energy
The devices used to harness thermal energy are called OTEC power plants
OTEC uses the ocean's warm surface water with a temperature of around 25°C (77°F) to vaporize a working fluid, which has a low-boiling point, such as ammonia. The vapor expands and spins a turbine coupled to a generator to produce electricity. ... The bigger the temperature difference, the higher the efficiency.
