Underwater tidal turbines in ocean — video by 3dmentat. Tidal energy or tidal power is a source of renewable energy, obtained from the tides of an ocean. Tidal turbines are more expensive to build than wind turbines but can capture more energy with the same size blades.

Power calculations for tidal currents and underwater turbine generators:

Tidal power converts the energy from the natural rise and fall of the tides into electricity. Tidal generators (or turbines) work like wind turbines, except it is ocean currents, not wind, that turns them. Tidal farms are something that we frequently mention here at inhabitat, where turbines harness the power of the planet's oceans to generate electricity.
