Review on the Exploitation Approaches of Tidal Power

Article Preview

Abstract:

Development of renewable energy and its associated basic theory and technology application is gradually becoming a global concernd hot issue. Tidal energy, positioned as one of the renewable energy, is named most promising new green energy with hydropower and wind power. Four typical exploitation approaches, including classical tidal power station, tidal current extraction, usage of natural tidal level range between a bay and the latest Dynamic Tidal Power(DTP), for tidal power are reviewed here. Both their basic concepts and application status are addressed, especially for the new concept of DTP. Some comparisons and summary of these tidal energy utilization are present in the conclusions part.
