The water levels within the port are subject to change with the ocean tides. In a non-tidal port, there is usually a river feeding the water levels in the port, minimizing the effects of the moon and the tidal changes. Inland ports are almost always no-tidal. Tidal ports are almost always in coastal regions.
There are a few plants using it to generate electricity, but its main "use" is to slow the Earth's rotation and to reshape Coastlines.
Tidal power is useful because it generates electricity that is renewable, free and non-polluting. So it is an excellent replacement for energy from fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which is non-renewable, expensive and polluting (that is, causing global warming).
