I am the originator of a potential base load dispatchable renewable energy system that would be capable of operating 24/7/52 by using the great ocean currents. I have assembled a team of consulting engineers from various industries including naval construction, coal power plant engineering and power transmission, nuclear power plant design and operation, under sea operations, fluid dynamics and other professionals.
