First Tidal Power in U.S. Starts Flowing to the Grid

SOLVED: A perspective tidal power company is interested in building a500 kW tidal power plant using a tidal device with an averageefficiency of 15%. The tidal location experiences an average tidalrange of about 6 m with an average tidal period of 12 hrs. If theaverage sea water density is about 1025 kg/m3, what should be thesize of the tidal basin area required for this project?

Tidal power is a promising renewable energy source, but production costs, a limited number of suitable locations, and technological challenges hinder its expansion.
