Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is a source of renewable energy wherein the temperature differential between deeper, colder water and warmer, shallow water is used to run a heat energy engine and produce electricity. The greater the temperature differential, the higher the efficiency of the heat engine. Consequently, this technology is thought to be most effective in the tropics, where the differential between deep water and surface water is the highest. OTEC has the potential to produce energy 10 to 100 times more efficiently than wave power.
