Well it's certainly better environmentally than using conventional air conditioning, doubt it would heat up the oceans significantly

Would it heat up the oceans: yes.

Significantly:no.

If this pans out it would be a lot better than what we are doing now.

It will always be less heating than if you use aircon.
