| Popis: | The current global context has highlighted the limits of fossil resources. Regarding the sharp increases in emissions of greenhouse gases, the awareness of sustainable development issues and renewable energy becomes more considerable. The development of renewable energies, in particular marine energies, could be done with the identification of energy deposits. Due to its geographical position, bordered by both the Mediterranean and Atlantic seas, Morocco has a great renewable energy resources potential, especially the Marine Renewable Energy (MRE/EMR). This last one is characterized by its predictability and potential that is not exploited yet. The current work includes the simulation of velocity and the characterization of the marine renewable energy resource, more precisely the marine currents, on a Moroccan coastal zone, the Tarfaya zone, with a spatial resolution of 200 m. It concerns the numerical modeling of marine currents, which allows to describe their speed on the studied area. The proposed contribution was made using the SWAN digital model. The characteristics obtained will be presented as tables of values and maps. |
