Tidal energy projects can compete on scale and cost with nuclear energy while creating urban parks and flood control opportunities, too.
Tidal energy is a massive, virtually infinite clean power resource just sitting out there, waiting to be tapped. The wait has been a long one, partly because the most efficient tidal energy systems involve expensive new infrastructure. If only someone could figure out a way to combine tidal energy with some other useful infrastructure to help defray the cost, like a new pedestrian and cycling bridge over a river, or a flood control system.
