摘要
The tides represent a large and benign source of renewable energy which can be converted to electricity using well-proven technology. The origin and nature of tidal power is summarized first. The main components of a tidal barrage, and the method of operation are described. The parts of the world where the tidal range and coastline are suitable for tidal barrages of substantial size and capable of generating electricity at an acceptable cost are relatively small in number but the UK has a substantial share.
