Dear EarthTalk: What’s the latest in tidal energy? -- Mary W., New York Tidal energy — generated from the natural rise and fall of ocean tides — is one of the most predictable forms of renewable ...

Scientists are studying Saturn's moon Titan to assess its tidal dissipation rate, the energy lost as it orbits the ringed planet with its massive gravitational force. Understanding tidal dissipation ...

Could Panthalassa’s Ocean-2 converter improve wave energy sourcing and lower the sector's negative impact on marine life?

Submerged in about 44 yards of water off Scotland’s coast, a turbine has been spinning for more than six years to harness the power of ocean tides for electricity — a durability mark that demonstrates ...

Stationary systems—such as fixed-bottom tidal turbines—could theoretically operate in low-flow conditions too, but they would ...

Tidal stream energy, in which electricity is generated by making use of the natural movements of coastal waters, is considered to have potential as a more efficient and predictable method of ...

SKF (SKFRY), a global leader in bearing and seal technology, has partnered with Proteus Marine Renewables to enhance the performance of the MeyGen tidal stream array, the world’s largest, located in ...

SwRI scientists have determined that at the rate Titan’s orbit is changing, it should have acquired a circular orbit within about 350 million years. The fact that Titan currently has a noncircular or ...

Submerged in about 44 yards of water off Scotland’s coast, a turbine has been spinning for more than six years to harness the power of ocean tides for electricity — a durability mark that demonstrates ...

In this October 2018 photo provided by MeyGen, tidal turbines are visible at the MeyGen tidal site located in the Inner Sound of the Pentland Firth, a narrow channel of water between the Scottish ...

Tidal energy technologies are still in the early days of their commercial development, but their potential for generating clean energy is big. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, ...
