Sarkozy mentions OTEC
David Levrat tells us that the French president-elect Sarkozy mentions OTEC in a recent interview with Mer et Marine.

"La mer tropicale est également une source majeure d'énergies renouvelables, malheureusement inexploitée aujourd'hui. Leur développement passe par une recherche appliquée pertinente sur l'éolien offshore, sur l'hydrolien et surtout sur l'énergie thermique des mers, actuellement ignorée."

English translation: "Tropical sea is also a major source of renewable energies, unfortunately not harvested today. Their development requires applied research on offshore wind energy, currents energy and especially OTEC, actually unknown [or ignored, it is the same word used in French]" Thanks to David for the translation. posted by bjelkeman at 20:36
