Complete the notes below. Write ONE WORD ONLY for each answer.

Marine renewable energy (ocean energy)

Introduction

More energy required because of growth in population and 31.
What's needed:
- renewable energy sources
- methods that won't create pollution

Wave energy

Advantage: waves provide a 32 source of renewable energy
Electricity can be generated using offshore or onshore systems
Onshore systems may use a reservoir
Problems:
- waves can move in any 33
- movement of sand, etc. on the 34 of the ocean may be affected

Tidal energy

Tides are more 35 than waves
Planned tidal lagoon in Wales:
- will be created in a 36 at Swansea
- breakwater (dam) containing 16 turbines
- rising tide forces water through turbines, generating electricity
- stored water is released through 37, driving the turbines in the reverse direction
Advantages:
- not dependent on weather
- no 38 is required to make it work
- likely to create a number of 39
Problem:
- may harm fish and birds, e.g. by affecting 40 and building up silt

Ocean thermal energy conversion

Uses a difference in temperature between the surface and lower levels
Water brought to the surface in a pipe
