It would be very difficult to harness much energy from an ordinary coast. The best place for tidal power plants is where the tidal water flows in a fast and powerful manner.
When the tide comes in, a lot of water is forced into the collection area. Then, when the tide goes out, it runs out very powerfully, and can drive turbines to generate electricity.
Tidal energy could replace any of the fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) generated energy. Tidal energy at the present is only suitable for a few locations round the world, as it needs a large bay or inlet with a small opening to the sea, where the tides will move in and out at speed.
No. Tidal energy is an inexhaustible form of hydroelectric power that uses only the energy from the changing of the tides to create energy instead of burning or consuming any form of energy source to create it. Thus, it produces no unsafe greenhouse gases or hazardous waste materials.
Hi nice question! Im working on a project for this. The positives for tidal energy is that it is a renewable resource. That means the sun is involved in how it gets the power. It also does not need to be burned to produce any bad gases like other resources to make power. Bye!
Tidal energy is clean, green, and renewable with no harmful carbon dioxide emissions.It is not increasing global warming, unlike fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) energy.
what accidents may occur with tidal power
It doesnt have any affects on the environment
Renewable resources are resources that are not expected to run out, any time soon at least. Some examples are solar energy, tidal energy and geothermal energy.

Yes, and it is a ecomomy of fossil fuels. Also any pollution.

The program of using alternative energy promotes a more efficient use of energy including solar wind, tidal and other renewable resources. Alternative energy refers to any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel.
Because it has not been harnessed to any extent; it is not historically a conventional method of power generation.
Some forms of wave energy, such as x-rays and gamma, can penetrate human skin and kill cells within the body (this is why they are used to treat cancer). However too much exposer can be extremely harmful causing bodily defects and can alter the way unborn babies develope.
The energy comes from whatever turns the dynamo. This can be any form of mechanical energy, water power, wind, tidal forces, steam turbine, etc.

Most of the energy we use on Earth ultimately derive from solar radiation. The exceptions are:* Nuclear energy.* Geothermal energy.* Tidal energy.So, any power plant that generates energy based on these would NOT derive energy from the Sun.
