Tidal energy is power produced by the surge of ocean waters during the rise and fall of tides. Tidal energy is a renewable source of energy.

Tidal energy is created using the movement of our tides and oceans, where the intensity of the water from the rise and fall of tides is a form of kinetic energy.

There are many different types of renewable energy resources. One source with the biggest potential is tidal energy, which relies on changing tides in the ocean to produce electricity.

Gravity from the sun and moon tugs at the surface of our oceans, creating tides that move massive quantities of water across broad expanses of shoreline twice a day.

Fresh thinking in electricity and gas is certainly relevant to today’s environmentally conscious society.
