What else can I help you with?
Tidal energy would be useful in Kansas yes or no?
No, tidal energy would not be suitable in Kansas as it is a landlocked state without access to oceans or tidal currents required for generating 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.
Why is tidal power useful?
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).
How is tidal energy transformed into useful energy?
There is amazing power in the ocean tides moving in and out every 12 and a half hours. The energy in the moving water turns turbines to generate electricity.There are two types:The barrage dam type, which works like a hydro-electric river dam, excepts it holds the water back at high tide and then generates power by releasing the water.The tidal stream system, which is simpler, cheaper and less harmful to the environment, consisting simply of turbines in the stream of moving water.
Is it true that tidal energy can be used only near an island where tides are very high and very low?
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.

Why is tidal Energy not useful energy resources everywhere?
Because their isn't much water in the desert.

Because their isn't much water in the desert.
Which region uses the most tidal energy?
Coastal areas uses most tidal energy. Tides are formed in the oceans.
How is most of the energy in the US generated?
tidal energy
How useful is a tidal wave to meet all energies needs?
Not at all useful.Tidal waves are unpredictable. There is no way at present to capture their energy. We can capture the energy of tides and also of waves, but not of tidal waves.
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.

Is water energy tidal energy?
No.Water energy is a whale lot different than tidal energy.
