Tidal Energy Pros and Cons. Last updated May 5, 2013 by Mathias Aarre Maehlum. The worldwide potential for tidal power is estimated to be 700 TWh a year. Currently, tidal power is early in the development stages and not able to compete with fossil fuels.However, Focus on renewable energy sources and demand for clean energy contributes to a rapid development of methods to harness this energy source.. We have no reason to believe that tidal power plants are not long lived. This ultimately reduces the cost these power plants can sell their electricity, making tidal energy more cost-competitive. The tidal barrage power plant La Rance was opened already in 1966 and still generates large amounts of electricity.
Innovators have long recognized the potential to capture great quantities of clean, free energy from these tides that can be used to spin turbines and readily produce electricity. Records of ocean power conversion date back to 900A.D. where the power of tidal movement was used to grind grains.
