Abstract

An ocean thermal energy conversion system (400), comprises a desalination sub-system including a flash evaporator (406) adapted to evaporate warm sea water into steam, and a first condenser (412) adapted to condense the steam into fresh water using cold sea water and an energy generation sub-system adapted to power the desalination sub-system. The energy generation sub-system includes a working fluid evaporator (418) adapted to evaporate a working fluid into a working vapor using warm sea water, a turbine-generator (422) powered by the working vapor, and a second condenser (416) adapted to condense the working vapor to liquid by using cold sea water.
