Abstract

The use of water resources to generate electricity has been carried out for a long time, in particular, hydroelectric power stations were built on rivers for this, where water flowing out of the reservoir turned a turbine, and that – a generator that generates electricity. Scientific research in this matter has revealed the possibility of obtaining electricity using seawater, which in nature is in constant motion. Currently, there are projects for the use of sea tides for the rotation of turbines. This can be achieved in two ways: the first is to directly lower the turbine into the sea current, the second is to fill a pre-prepared container with the help of tides, the flowing water from which rotates the turbine. These are capital-intensive and powerful power plants, the construction of which will take many years. There are also ways to generate electricity using floats, but they are low-power. The experience of building powerful tidal power plants using the movement of seawater is considered.
