Dear Student

Tidal energy is sometimes suspected to have environmental effects and may disturb the marine life in the area. This is another limitation of harnessing tidal energy.

Waves
  • Wave energy can only be used in areas where Waves are very strong.
  • Since the waves are erratic, the energy produced from wave energy is unpredictable. So, it is not a reliable source of energy.
  • The initial set-up costs are high.
