Evaluation of potential tidal impoundment energy systems in Ria de Aveiro, Portugal
Energy Reports, 2020 The shelving of the seabed and funneling of the water by the estuaries is favorable for tidal impoundment technologies. In this work, the estimation of the tidal potential energy for Ria de Aveiro lagoon was achieved through the application of a model ...
