Eco Factor: Mystery liquid to harness tidal energy of the ocean for clean electricity.
Apart from carrying out extravagant extraterrestrial missions, NASA does think about the planet and ways to improve conditions on Earth that could help mankind if the plans to set up a colony on Mars fail drastically. The space agency has developed an ingenious technology that can be used to harness the hydrokinetic energy of the ocean waves and convert it into useful electricity without emitting any CO2.
The technology is based on a mystery liquid developed by NASA that can store all that ocean energy in a usable form. The material used in the system melts in effect to the change in the temperature of water. On melting the material expands, compressing a central tube in which another liquid is stored. This compression increases the pressure inside the tube, which can be used to generate electricity. Researchers at NASA think that the system does show promise and can be used on various bodies of water that could be marked by computers for the potential.
The Dark Side:
The amount of energy developed by such system will depend on the change in temperatures of the ocean, which is never more than a few degrees. How much electricity this small change in temperature would account for is something we’d love to discover.
