Tidal Power

2 Megawatt Tidal Power Turbine being deployed in Minas Passage

Posthip Scott sent me a link to a video about the FORCE tidal power project, and while it's a very nice video it doesn't really tell you much. The problem might be that nobody has gotten one of these things to work reliably. It's kind of like the old immovable object versus the irresistible force problem. People keep trying to make these things because the potential is enormous, but the ocean doesn't care. It would just as soon sweep everyone and everything out to sea. The Globe and Mail has a decent story.
