Tidal energy. Tidal power is a new source of energy.
Ocean tides contain enormous energy. During the rising tide, the rising sea water has large kinetic energy, and as the sea water level rises, the huge kinetic energy of the sea water is converted into potential energy; During the ebb process, the sea water moves away and the water level gradually decreases. , potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. The energy of tidal power is directly proportional to the tidal volume and amplitude of the tide. In other words, it is proportional to the square of the tidal range and the surface area of the reservoir. Compared to hydropower production, the energy density of tidal power is low, equivalent to the level of micro-hydropower production.
