Abstract
The upper part of the Gulf of Baja California, besides the ecological diversity and mineral resources, has a great potential in energy resources. In this paper it is presented a preliminary evaluation of the ideal actions in order to obtain electric energy if renewable resources were used. The potential in power and energy that could be produced is evaluated from: (a) tide level changes, (b) tide currents, (c) coastal geothermal manifestations, (d) saline gradients in the discharge area of the Colorado River, and (e) submarine hydrothermal vents. It is emphasized that this evaluation assesses the energetic potential only and does not consider the environmental impact and the constructive methods, as these issues are being studied separately.
