limitations of tidal power
Answers
1. Environmental Effects
Tidal barrages relies on manipulation on ocean levels and therefore potentially have the environmental effects on the environment similar to those of hydroelectric dams. Technological solutions that will resolve some of these issues are currently being developed.
2. Close to Land
Tidal power plants needs to be constructed close to land. This is also an area where technological solutions are being worked on. Hopefully in a few years we can exploit weaker tidal currents, at locations further out in the sea.
3. Expensive
It is important to realize that the methods for generating electricity from tidal energy is a relatively are relatively new technologies. It is projected that tidal power will be commercially profitable within 2020 with better technology and larger scales.
