Abstract

This Paper discussed the historical review, current status of ocean current turbine, challenges and problems in the way of the ocean current turbine commercialization. As we known that fossil fuel resources in the world are limited and we can't depend on them for the future energy needs of the world. For this purpose the researcher have find such sources of energy which are sustainable, green, environment friendly and have no impact on human lives, which includes renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and ocean energy sources. In this review paper, we also focused on the initiative of the ocean current energy technology and the efforts of different countries, companies and scientist for the development of ocean current turbine to extract power from ocean current energy including Marin Current Turbine Ltd (MCT), Florida Atlantic University (FAU). We summarized the current status and recent development in the field of ocean current turbine. We discussed some earlier projects and prototypes. The paper also discusses the impact of the ocean current turbine on the environment and marine life. Some of the current limitation and problems are also identified in the way of ocean current turbine development like grid connection.
