The Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the warm surface sea water and the cold deep-sea water to generate clean and renewable energy. An OTEC plant can be configured to produce large amount of water for drinking, irrigation, and aquaculture. The efficiency of the OTEC is higher when the temperature difference between the surface water and deep-sea water is around 20 to 22 degrees Celsius. So only tropical regions can utilize this system. This means, India is one of the countries which can enjoy this favor.
