A Study on Tidal Power & Its Scope in India

Anupam Diwedi

Abstract


Tidal Energy is one of the future energy generation sources for India as it could result in economic green progress of the country with minimal carbon emission. The Tidal energy technology is at nascent stage if status of renewable energy generation in India is considered. In case of India, there is tremendous scope for the tidal energy because it has a very vast coastline.  This paper presents a basic review of the current scenario of tidal energy technology and discusses its barriers & way forward for tidal energy development in India.
