Energy supply from sea wave, currents, and tides

Article of Hydrolink 3, 2024 | Net Zero and Water


45


Water has an impact on many different areas of climate mitigation, including variations in atmospheric conditions, temperature regulation, carbon removal, and ecosystem services. Water resource preservation and management are essential components of any comprehensive plan to address climate change. Given that water use, distribution, storage, and treatment all contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, climate mitigation is quickly becoming a priority in the water sector. Mitigation is especially important for water-related renewable energy, water-energy nexus efficiency, and carbon emissions and storage in water ecosystems.

The present issue of Hydrolink looks into some of the ways that water engineering supports sustainable climate change mitigation efforts. This includes the impact of climate change on urban water demand and how digital transition in urban water supply can mitigate climate change; the role of hydropower energy production; the development of new technologies using currents and waves for marine energy supply; the role of interaction between river dynamics and terrestrial ecosystems on the global carbon cycle; and how cold region engineers work on innovative solutions that balance the need for development with the protection of fragile glacial environments.

Abstract: Environmental conservation and biodiversity preservation are critical considerations when discussing renewable energy sources. Traditional energy sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas have a significant impact on the environment, contributing to global warming, air pollution, and the depletion of natural resources.
