About
Ocean
Thermal
Energy
Corporation
OTE
is
a
Lancaster,
Pennsylvania-based
Company
that
designs
and develops
deep-water
hydro thermal
clean-energy
systems
which include
producing
fossil
fuel
free
electricity
through
Ocean
Thermal Energy
Conversion
(OTEC)
and
environmentally
friendly
cooling though
Seawater
Air
Conditioning
(SWAC).
An
important
part
of
the technology
is
the
production
of
large
amounts
of
water
for
drinking, aquaculture,
and
agriculture.
OTE’s
technology
is
best
suited
to
tropical
and
subtropical
regions
of the
world
where
about
3
billion
people
live.
It
utilizes
the
natural temperature
differential
in
oceans
to
generate
base-load,
24/7, clean,
non-polluting
electricity,
as
well
as
alternative,
energy-efficient cooling
systems
and
fresh
water,
the
latter
of
which
is
essential
for
the entire
world,
particularly
developing
communities.
Since
the
1970s, OTEC
and
SWAC
systems
have
been
successfully
demonstrated
and operating
in
several
locations
around
the
world.
