Abstract

Tidal energy is one of the different types of energy sources. Unlike many types of renewable energy, tidal currents are a kinetic and potential source of energy arising from the influence of the Earth's gravitational force. Tidal is one of the few predictable energies in the world that has made it attractive to today's world; So that if it is inhibited, tidal energy can be produced at predetermined times. This type of energy is not able to meet all the needs of the world, but it is a starting point for expanding and acquainting the world with clean and accessible energy. In this paper, we first discuss the emergence and history of tidal energy using and then other methods of tidal energy extraction was introduced, especially one of the new and developing methods called Bluetec, and finally the performance of the tidal power plant was investigated.
