Why don't we see more marine turbine projects ? Aren't they an answer to the perceived drawbacks of wind turbines ?

I hope to report soon on developments with an innovative wave solution from Finland which is entering the industrial pilot stage. The company is a client of mine and I'm not at liberty at the moment to say any more than is on the website (see below)

WaveRoller is a giant wing which sits on the ocean floor near to shore, but seawards of the breaker line. It moves back and forth in powerful bottom currents. This enables the pumping of onshore turbines.
