Hydro-tidal+1

__ **Hydroelectric** __




 * This is a possible hydroelectric turbine that would create energy for millions if it went into action. This would be a turbine plant that would be located offshore and would produce more energy for the areas or regions around it. It has many different speeds, but it would put a halt on fishing and lobstering in curtain areas as well as ships and shuttles slowing down their speed by 10-20 mph.**

**This hydroelectric turbine would be an alternate option as to what the hydroelectric turbine would look like or put in a small area or region of the offshore production or energy.

Definition:** A form of energy that comes from the motions of the Earth, Sun, and Moon.

Tidal energy is generated by the motion of the Earth, Sun, and Moon. They act as gravitational forces to produce electric energy.
 * What is the Source?(Where does it come from or how is/was it formed?)**

Captured through movements and rotations or the Earth, Moon, and Sun.
 * How is this source used to make energy?(is it burned, "captured," etc)**

Horizontal Axis Turbines Vertical Axis Turbines Oscillating Devices Venturi Effect
 * What equipment do you need to convert the “raw material” into energy?**

Off the coast of California Australia and South East Asia
 * Give a real-life example of where it is used, and how.**

- Can't be used in-land - Very Expensive
 * List two advantages and two disadvantages.**

15% of fish that swim by the turbines get cut by the blades
 * The most unusual fact I learned was…….**
