Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation appoints Allerton
February 2011
Allerton Communications has been appointed to provide PR advice and support to Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation, the developer of systems using the natural temperature gradient of the ocean to produce clean, sustainable base-load power and fresh, potable water.
Established as Ocean Engineering & Energy Systems in 1988, Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation ('OTE') is an international renewable energy and resource company using ocean thermal energy conversion ('OTEC') to develop land-based power plants for the production of low-cost electricity and potable water.
OTEC uses the natural thermal temperature gradient of the sea. Unlike conventional power plants, OTEC systems are non-polluting and inexpensive to operate. As long as the sun heats the oceans, the electricity and potable water produced by OTEC are unlimited and free.
Based on its power plant designs, OTE plans a broad range of innovative products and services, such as 24/7 clean power and water. The Company's multidisciplinary team of experienced corporate executives, scientists and ocean engineers, together with strong strategic corporate alliances, enable it to provide solutions to address energy, resource and environmental problems.
