Water falling from one height to a lower height can be used to turn electric generators, which in turn produce power. The downside is that they can hurt fish and water base animals.

Tidal power is being experimented with using waves and the flowing tides to generate power. The downside of this equipment is that they take up large sections of water, but have little real environmental impact.
