Fun fact. I just finished a whole class on Alternate Energy Sources. Pretty interesting stuff. The biggest problem with most Alt Energy sources is to do with efficiency. For example, hydropower one method to harness energy from the ocean is using an OTEC device, but they can only obtain an efficiency of just under 10%. This means the OTEC device can only harness 10% of the available energy, which isn't feasible at all for how large and expensive these things are. The list goes on and on though with the other alt energy sources aswell. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask.
