Harnessing Ocean-Based Renewable Energy for Clean Power and Coastal

Resilience

Objective

To design, pilot, and scale ocean-based renewable energy systems (such as tidal, wave, and
offshore wind power) to provide sustainable, clean, and reliable electricity to coastal and
island communities, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and promote inclusive green growth.

Scope of the Project

This project will focus on:

1. Feasibility studies to assess energy potential (tidal, wave, wind) in selected coastal
regions.
2. Design and installation of one or more pilot ocean energy systems.
3. Integration with local microgrids or desalination plants.
4. Community training for maintenance and monitoring.
5. Environmental and social impact assessments.
6. Scale-up plan based on pilot results.
