Tidal BarragesA tidal barrage is basically a huge dam that is built across a river or estuary. Tunnels are built throughout the dam, and when the tide rises and falls it turns a turbine that generates power. Tidal FencesTidal fences are giant turnstiles that have vertical axis turbines mounted on a fence. The water passes through the fence and powers the turbines. Tidal TurbinesTidal turbines are the latest water power technology used in tidal areas. They look like wind turbines that are lined together underwater. They are used to capture strong tidal flows, so they have to be built extra strong.
