TIDAL CURRENT ENERGY AN OVERVIEW
Ocean currents are an enormous source of green energy. This energy from marine currents can be extracted by means of tidal turbines. This paper explains different types of tidal current turbines. This paper discusses about tidal energy and site selection criteria for tidal current turbine in general.

Kinetic energy of tidal currents in the province of Chubut, Argentina
This work is a preliminary study to find some sites for the potential use of tidal stream energy and their associated currents in the Chubut coast. In addition, an evaluation of the energy resource of the Chubut Gulfs is made. The possibility of energetic utilization of the tides is achieved by transforming the displacement movement into a rotation ...

Tidal current energy resource assessment in Ireland: Current status and future update
Interest in renewable energy in Ireland has increased continually over the past decade. This interest is due primarily to security of supply issues and the effects of climate change. Ireland imports over 90% of its primary energy consumption, mostly in the form of fossil fuels. The exploitation of Ireland's vast indigenous renewable energy resources is
