Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to
date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant
windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the Earth, is also being tested.

Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and
rivers. Fifty years ago hydro-electric power provided one-third of the electricity used in the United States,
but today it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are
studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also
underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.
