Tidal energy is clean renewable energy with
the potential to generate electricity akin to hydroelectric power.
It involves exploiting the movement and energy
contained in water and converting it into electrical power.
The movement of natural flowing water has the potential to generate large amounts
of electrical energy capable of providing the world with all of its energy needs.
Tidal energy harnesses the changes in coastal tidal waters caused predominantly
by the interaction of the gravitational fields of the earth, moon and sun.
The coastal water level ebb and flow twice daily,
alternatively filling and emptying natural basins along the shoreline.
The currents flowing in and out of these basins can be exploited
to turn mechanical devices to produce electricity.
Rapid Renewable Energy – RRE and its technical
partners are at the forefront of Tidal Energy solutions; developing
projects and technology that deliver clean renewable energy from
the current of oceans, rivers and manmade channels. Our solutions
are simple and scalable, and can be installed in a variety of locations. |
