Like tidal barrages, hydroelectric power (HEP) stations use the kinetic energy in moving water.

Wave

The water in the sea rises and falls because of the waves of the surface. Wave machines use the kinetic energy in this movement to drive electricity generators.

Advantages:

  • Water power in its various forms is a renewable energy resource and there are no fuel costs.
  • No harmful polluting gases are produced.
  • Tidal barrages and hydroelectric…
