Site Assessment of Multi-purpose Offshore Platform with OTEC in East and Southeast Asia

In order to deal with the food and energy security issue, we design a multi-purpose offshore platforms with OTEC in East and Southeast Asia. This work utilizes Google Earth Engine (GEE) to assess possible target areas and then identify seven typical region for further evaluation. Triple I light index is introduced for site assessment. Finally, we conclude that tropical Southeast Asia performs better and thus suitable for these facilities.
