There exists a machine, which is in effect, a turbine to produce electricity that when placed in a most logical locale, one where the tidal currents are strong and regular, by such current can turn the turbine to produce energy. Such machines are not new. They have been used in creeks and rivers where the runniing water turns a propeller that will turn, through a gear system, other machinery on land. A cousiin to this machine is the common water meal used to generate energy to crush grain and such.

Where is tidal energy available in Canada?
Although it's 'available' at every point on every seacoast in the world, I'm not aware that it's in use anywhere in North America, but it is being planned/engineered somewhere in Scandinavia. I hope someone proves me wrong and tells us it is in use in Canada or elsewhere.
What location in Canada is the site of the worlds greatest tidal variations?
Greatest Tidal Variations are located in the Bay of Fundy South of Prince Edward island around the maritime provinces of Canada if your looking on a map
Is Rice-A-Roni available in Canada?
Yes rice-a-roni is widely available in Canada
Is tidal energy in new zealand?
Tidal energy is not yet used in New Zealand for electric power generation, but there are suggestions for installations in the northern harbours on the west coast, and for Cook Strait. The Cook Strait site is probably a better site.
What are France's nonrenewable and renewable resorce?
Some of France's Renewable resources are Nuclear Energy, Hydro-power energy and tidal power (Europe's biggest tidal power station) France's non-renewable resources are Coal/Peat, Oil and natural gas.
Is there use of tidal energy in Canada?
Yes. There are three Barrage systems of tidal energy operating throughout the world.One of these is in the Bay of Fundy in Canada.
What are the limitations of using tidal energy?
Tidal energy is only available on the coast. Some locations are better than others for tidal energy because of the tidal range - for example, the North West of Australia has a very large tidal range.Converting tidal energy to electrical energy may require the construction of channels or barrages which may impact on the environment.

What is the history of tidal energy?
tidal energy is created by turbines that does make tidal power
Where does tidal energy be placed?
tidal energy is be placed in the sea
Good things about tidal?
The Good thing about tidal energy is that is a very clean for of energy. Tidal energy is also renewable. Tidal energy plants could be place along the coast.
What is the purpose of tidal energy?
The purpose of tidal energy is to be used as a resource in hydropower, a renewable source of energy. Tidal energy can be created by barrages, fences, or turbines.
Is water energy tidal energy?
No.Water energy is a whale lot different than tidal energy.
What type of resources can tidal energy be put?
Tidal power, also called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of tides into useful forms of power, mainly electricity. Tidal energy is a renewable energy source.
Tidal energy nonrenewable true or false?
True. Tidal energy is renewable energy source.
What can we do for our future energy source?
We can develop technology to use energy sources that are readily available, such as solar energy, wind energy, tidal energy, etc.; and perhaps, eventually, nuclear fusion.
What is the cost of tidal power in Canada?
These projects are planned but costs must be only an estimate at present. British Columbia Tidal Energy Corp. plans to deploy at least three 1.2 MW turbines in the Campbell River or in the surrounding coastline of British Columbia by 2009.[21] Nova Scotia Power has selected OpenHydro's turbine for a tidal energy demonstration project in the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, Canada
