Energía Mareomotriz: La esperanza de un futuro renovable

Las energías renovables se han convertido los últimos años en la esperanza hacia un futuro más sostenible y respetuoso con el medio ambiente. Los gobiernos en la actualidad, incluyen dentro de sus planes la sostenibilidad como tema prioritario. A todas las energías renovables se les considera como una fuente inagotable de abastecimiento energético, a las cuáles se les debe sacar el máximo provecho de manera viable.
