Today, many people concerned about the environment are interested in exploring every nook and cranny at the bottom of the sea, all in search of innovative solutions to address climate change. This interest in the oceans has become even more important with the advent of technological and scientific advances, revealing new ways to harness marine energy.
Exploring the depths of the ocean’s energy potential
It has been some time since several companies around the world began to bet, through various projects, on the different ways to harness the energy that can be obtained from the ocean and the great potential that this could present.
The search for these new and innovative alternatives arose mainly due to the alarming events that were triggered worldwide due to the impending climate crisis, for which countless companies are already looking for a solution with which to contribute to this fight that seems to become increasingly complex.
Now, the main focus is on a fuel located at the bottom of the sea; this innovation was recently discovered, and even more precious was the idea of exploiting it. This happened after it was identified as an extremely promising resource, so much so that it has turned 10 nations upside down to make the most of it.
An important international alliance is what will make this project possible.
The aforementioned international alliance brings together 10 nations with the same objective and is becoming increasingly relevant in imagining a cleaner and more sustainable future, where a tomorrow is envisioned where most of the energy sources are not only renewable but also far from being polluting.
Well, this innovative project that brings together a number of researchers, scientists, companies and different governmental entities in the Mediterranean is called Blue Bio Med. It has the special feature of focusing not only on research to obtain new sources of renewable energy, but also offers a wide range of opportunities to exploit the potential of the sea in this sector.
It is important to mention that this project has great relevance in various industries such as food, medical and biotechnology, not only in energy areas such as electricity generation through thermal energy from the sea, tidal or wave power.
What is the main idea of this plan at the bottom of the sea?
The specific aim is to develop clean and sustainable energies. The way to achieve this with this project is by studying in depth and exploring the different ways to extract hydrogen from reservoirs at the bottom of the sea, this would be done with various forms of marine energy such as those mentioned above.
On the other hand, the sustainable plan of this multinational alliance also aims to investigate other resources that have not been fully exploited, macroalgae are an ideal example because their use in industries such as pharmaceuticals and food is extremely beneficial.
And the application of this also represents a relevant importance in the protection of the coasts while exploring the medical and biotechnological applications of the sponge. Not to mention that the study of microorganisms in their natural stages can be effective for the development of chemical products and biofuels.
The Blue Bio Med project represents a significant step towards a cleaner and more sustainable future, through the exploration of marine resources that not only seeks innovative solutions to address climate change, but also promotes the development of renewable energies and research into new resources.
