anyone who is using electricity. meaning stores, people, buildings, ect. afterall, tidal power is a source of electricity ran by spinning turbines underwater.
No. Tidal energy is an inexhaustible form of hydroelectric power that uses only the energy from the changing of the tides to create energy instead of burning or consuming any form of energy source to create it. Thus, it produces no unsafe greenhouse gases or hazardous waste materials.
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.
some advantages of tidal energy are, continuous, predictable energy. Another benefit of tidal power is that it is predictable. The gravitational forces of celestial bodies are not going to stop anytime soon.
Tidal energy can work in only certain locations. A tidal generating station must be in an area where the difference between high and low tides is very large. This means the tidal waters will have a great deal of energy.
Tidal power comes in two flavours - tidal range, which uses the difference in height of the tide between high tide and low tide, and tidal stream, which uses the speed of the tidal water as it moves round the coast. Tidal stream power extraction is most often found near islands and headlands where the flow is funneled between landmasses. This accelerates the flow, giving areas of high energy that can be extracted. Most tidal stream devices are more suited to these areas of high energy, however companies such as Minesto are concentrating on areas of lower energy, which are far more common and widespread. So to answer your question - most devices need the high flows found near islands and headlands, but there are one or two that don't.
Coastal areas uses most tidal energy. Tides are formed in the oceans.
Electricity
tidal energy is created by turbines that does make tidal power
tidal energy is be placed in the sea
Renewable. It uses the movement of the oceans to generate electricity when it is used for power.
Tidal Barrage - uses the potential energy from high tide to low tide. Tidal Electric Resevoir - similar thing but literally a big bath tub in the sea, water in, control the output at low tide. Marine current turbines - turbines undersea Tidal Fence 'Stingray' tidal generator
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.
No. Tidal energy is an inexhaustible form of hydroelectric power that uses only the energy from the changing of the tides to create energy instead of burning or consuming any form of energy source to create it. Thus, it produces no unsafe greenhouse gases or hazardous waste materials.
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.
No.Water energy is a whale lot different than tidal energy.
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.
True. Tidal energy is renewable energy source.
