The latest proposal (2011) is for a privately-financed barrage between Lavernock Point and Brean Down - just upstream from the two islands that sit in the estuary.
No, as it would destroy vital fish breeding grounds, especially for migratory eels, and reduce food for migrating and residential waterbirds.
The Barrage would work by allowing the incoming tide to pass though gates in the barrage and holding the water as the tide retreats, when the water level on the seaward side of the barrage is low enough the water held behind the barrage would be released and passed through turbines to generate electricity.
The Severn Barrage could provide a substantial source of renewable energy through tidal power generation. It has the potential to produce a consistent and predictable energy output due to the reliable nature of tides. Additionally, it could help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to the UK's energy security.
yes it was i took a long time to build to !
