Abstract
Renewable energy is one important countermeasure for global climate change problems. Chinese government has paid more attentions to renewable energy in the context of increasing energy demand. The national strategy, such as the Renewable Energy Lawand special fund program for ocean energy, have advanced the big progress of the technology research, development and demonstration for ocean energy in recent years, especially for tidal current energy technologies and wave energy technologies in China. Nevertheless, there are some problems in the development of ocean energy, such as technology readiness levels, incentive policies, test sites, industrialization and so on. Some suggestions are given to improve the applications in remote islands and foster the ocean energy industries in China.
