Behind the scenes look at ocean energy developers
If you’re interested in a real insider’s look at the wave and tidal industry, and the personalities and clashes that lurk beneath the serious discussions of technological feasibility and environmental effects of marine energy projects, take a look at this article from Bloomberg,
Tudor Jones Harnesses East River in Green Power’s New Frontier by Anthony Effinger (May 8, 2007). The article highlights some of the rough waters that nascent ocean developers must navigate en route to success.

What struck me about tidal projects is the small amount of energy they were projecting from U.S. tidal flows. On the
other hand, the fact that moving water contains so much more energy than moving air, and is far more constant and predictable, would make these turbines far more valuable that crappy wind turbines.
