Tidal Power in the UK and Worldwide to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions [PDF]
International Journal of Engineering Business Management, 2011 This paper discusses the role of Tidal Power in the UK in fulfilling the UK's requirements for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Generating electricity from tidal range of the Severn Estuary has the potential to generate some 5% of UK electricity from a

Modification of tidal resonance in the Severn Estuary by a barrage and lagoon [PDF]
Journal of Ocean Engineering and Marine Energy, 2020 AbstractThe Bristol Channel/Severn Estuary has some of the largest tides in the world with a mean spring tidal range of 12.2 m. Numerous proposals have been made to exploit this for energy extraction. However, the large tidal range is partially driven by tidal resonance and such systems can be sensitive to small changes.

Electricity Generation by the Tidal Barrages [PDF]
Energy Procedia, 2011 AbstractConcern over global climate change has led policy makers to accept the importance of reducing Greenhouse gas emissions. A tidal barrage utilizes the potential energy of the tide and has proven to be very successful, despite opposition from environmental groups. Tidal barrages make use of the potential energy of the tides.
