No. Tidal energy is kinetic; it's MOVING WATER.
potential energy that converts to kinetic energy
In tidal power, the energy transfer involves the conversion of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy and then into electrical energy. As the tide flows in or out, the movement of water causes the kinetic energy to turn turbines, which then generate electricity through a generator.
Tidal energy can be used to generate electricity through tidal stream systems, which harness the kinetic energy of moving water, or through tidal barrage systems, which use the potential energy of changing water levels to turn turbines and generate power.
Kinetic and tidal
kinetic
Tidal energy is produced by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on Earth's oceans, which causes the water levels to rise and fall in a predictable cycle known as tides. This movement of water can be harnessed using tidal turbines or barrages to generate electricity. As the tides flow in and out, they drive these systems, converting kinetic and potential energy into usable electrical power. Tidal energy is a renewable resource with the potential for minimal environmental impact.

Potential and kinetic energy are related in that potential energy is stored energy that can be converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. When an object has potential energy, it has the potential to move and therefore has the potential to have kinetic energy.
Tidal energy can be considered a form of kinetic energy because it is derived from the movement of the tides, which is driven by the gravitational interactions between the Earth, moon, and sun.
Tidal barrages can generate predictable and reliable electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy of tides. They have a long operational life of up to 100 years and produce no greenhouse gas emissions during electricity generation. Tidal barrages also offer potential for flood protection and navigation improvements.
