Description
Summary:An overview of status of development of tidal energy is given in this article. To reduce the dependance on fossil fuel and imported energy resources, the need for ocean energy is a global demand in developing countries. The ability to directly extract from the world’s oceans may be in the form of mechanical energy from waves, tides, or currents, or in the form of thermal energy from the sun’s heat. This paper identifies the opportunities for future development of tidal energy.
