Tidal Barrage Power Generation  Lasting source of clean energy  Large capacity and secure  Time of production predictable  Tried and tested La Rance operating > 40 yrs  Flood protection  Transport link  Tourism  Disadvantage - some environmental modification but not necessarily degradation!!

CONCLUDING COMMENT The UK possesses natural resources in tidal energy capable of making a significant impact on its CO 2 emissions. _____________  Tidal barrages in the estuaries of the Northwest would be capable of meeting about half the region’s electricity need  UK tidal resource ~ 15% barrage/lagoon + ~ 5% ‘stream’  ISSUES outstanding:- sediments – morphological changes & biodiversity implications; tidal regime change & biodiversity implications; tidal stream resource and array performance evaluation; optimal operational scheduling - grid balancing; hydro-mechanical plant performance; economics - holistic cost-benefit analysis  Further information:  Any questions?
