Introduction
Tidal power, also called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that
converts the energy of tides into useful forms of power - mainly
electricity. This is the only form of energy whose source is the moon.

Tides
Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of the Earth.

The high tide

The low tide

Tidal power

Tidal Power
Tidal power is actuated by a turbine under water that spins making the
mechanical energy to electrical through a generator that send the
electrical energy to the shore.

How does it work?
The tide flows in two directions under the water
![Page 11: Tidal Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042818/55c4c893bb61eb09358b45b0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How does it work?
When the tide flows forward, the propellers turn anti-clockwise
![Page 12: Tidal Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042818/55c4c893bb61eb09358b45b0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How does it work?
When the tide flows backwards, the propellers turn in the opposite direction

Types of tidal plants
Tidal Barrage
Are Typically dams, built across on estuary of bay
Tidal current turbines
Make use of the kinetic energy of moving water to power turbines in a similar way to wind turbines that use wind to power turbines

Tidal Barrage
The Rance tidal barrage in North-West France is the largest in the world

Significant benefits from using Tidal Energy include:
Electrification of isolated communities
Generation for the grid Regrowth of coral reefs using mineral accretion technology
Substitution of imported petroleum used to generate electricity

Pros and Cons of Tidal Power
![Page 20: Tidal Energy](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042818/55c4c893bb61eb09358b45b0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Tidal Barrages
Pros
Mature technology that has been around for nearly 50 years
Reliable energy source.
Cons
High costs of construction
Environmental impacts on marine life
Low power output in comparison to other energy source like coal and nuclear power plants .

Tidal Current Turbines
Pros
Able to utilize both ebb and flood tides
Tidal current turbines are not large massive dam structure.
Cons
Tidal current turbine technology is young in its development
Installation and maintenance challenges
Environmental impacts are still being tested

Major Tidal plants in World

Tidal plants in India
West Bengal Renewable Energy Development Agency in sunderbans.
The Indian state of Gujarat is planning to host South Asia's first commercial-scale tidal power station. The company Atlantis Resources is to install a 50MW tidal farm in the Gulf of Kutch on India's west coast, with construction starting early in 2012. later on it is decided to increase the capacity up to 250MW plants.

Tidal plant in Kerala
Situated near the breakwaters of Vizhinjam Port which is about 20 km from Thiruvananthapuram city. The station started its commercial operation in 1991. This oscillating water column (OWC) produces about 150 kw of power
