Seasolar Power OTEC possible for Cayman Islands
According to an interview with Richard Hew [cached], CEO and President of Caribbean Utilities Company (CUC) by Cayman Net News Online, CUC has a memorandum of understanding with Sea Solar Power with regards to an OTEC installation.

“Although diesel is still the most practical and feasible energy source for Grand Cayman, some alternatives are coming into play,” Mr Hew says. Wind turbines may be feasible at current fuel prices and there is promise in the area of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) [...] Mr Hew said that OTEC electricity could well be in production over the next two to three years and CUC has a memorandum of understanding in place with the Baltimore-based company Sea Solar International, should the technology prove viable.
