Challenges of Marine Power in the Balkan Region

Öz

—The world power generation is in a process of transition from fossil fuels to renewable and sustainable power sources. The part of the electricity from alternative energy technologies is growing rapidly. New engineering approaches and devices are continuously created by the researchers in the field of power engineering, aimed at obtaining energy with less harm for the environment and the life on the planet. The present work is an initial evaluation of the possibilities for marine energy conversion in the Balkan region. The focus is on energy from the sea including energy from waves, currents, salinity, temperature difference etc. The main purpose of the work is on the basis of assessment of the power potential determined by the geographical characteristics of the seas in the region and the scientific, technological and economical level to make some conclusions about the prospects in this area
