Tidal power plant
Hydro-electricity, tidal power, wave energy and geothermal
La Rance Tidal Power Plant is the only full scale power station of its type in the world, located in northern France on the La Rance River. The power plant was completed in 1967, with 24 bulb turbines, each capable of producing ten megawatts of power. The dam itself is 2460 feet (750 meters) long, and 43 feet (13 meters) high.
How Does Tidal Power Work? - Clean Energy Ideas
Tidal power fits the bill, a natural source of energy with many benefits. The planet's tidal capability greatly exceeds that of the world’s entire coal and oil supply. It is an ideal source of energy with great potential. When developed, tidal power could be a primary provider for our future energy requirements. REFERENCES . www.iclei.org

The next largest tidal power plant is in Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia, Canada, with 20 MW of electricity generation capacity. China, Russia, and South Korea all have smaller tidal power plants. The United States does not have any tidal power plants, and it only has a few sites where tidal energy could be economical to produce.

There are other tidal power plants in the world, just none as large and reliable as the one on the La Rance River. Areas of the United States that would be ideal for a tidal power plant would be in the Pacific Northwest, due to the fact that the tides along the coast fluctuate considerably, about 12 feet a …

Tidal power generation is much like the method used in hydroelectric plants. Gates and turbines are installed along a dam, or barrage, that stretches across the opening of a tidal basin, like a dam or estuary. ... For example, the Bay of Fundy in Canada is a promising location for a barrage-type tidal plant. However, it is estimated that such a ...
