To supply the world with energy, this idea is certainly one of the best I have seen. I would love to see this idea come into being and perhaps even have an ‘energy island’ or two off the coast here in Oregon; even though it wouldn’t take advantage of the amoinia turbine.
Solar, wind and wave energy potential is great in pretty much any coastal town within 1000 miles of the equator so I could see some version of this coming to more places than just the tropics.

And if the benefits weren’t enough for you, they just plain look cool too.
