Harnessing the Energy of Tidal Currents: State-of-the-Art and Proposal of Use in EV Charging Points

The implantation of floating platforms for the generation of electricity from tidal currents is possible due to the development of new hydrokinetic microturbines. This article presents an analysis of the situation in which the exploitation of tidal currents is nowadays, the state of art of the exist...
