WAVE ENERGY
In 2017, supported by the SFPMRE, the Youlian shipyard (Shekou) Co. Ltd. and the Guangzhou Institute of Energy Conversion (GIEC) have been developing a power supply system provided by wave energy for offshore cage.

The floating cage will be powered by wave energy (60 kW) and solar energy (30 kW), and the cabins could also be used for workers accommodation or storage rooms. The system is suitable for different depth from 15 m to 100 m, and the system will be deployed for sea trial in 2019.

OTEC
Supported by the SFPMRE, the National Ocean Technology Centre (NOTC) is developing a power system (200 W) of instrument based on OTEC, the maximum operating depth is 500 m. NOTC completed the installation and sea trial of the power system in 2017.

OCEAN SALINITY ENERGY
Supported by the SFPMRE, the Ocean University of China (OUC) is developing an ocean salinity energy power system using pressure retarded osmosis technology. The OUC completed the design and testing of the system in 2016. The system achieves the power of 100 W with its total efficiency over 3%.
