Generation of electricity through tides is a common and beneficial resource now a day. In this electricity is generated by the differences in the tidal levels of water due to the rise and fall in water level because of moon’s gravitational energy. At night in 12 hours the water of the ocean rises and falls continuously due to moon’s pull around the earth. This change in water level holds potential energy that then can be used to generate power/electricity. Tidal power is a well predicted renewable source of energy because the height of the tides does not change every month and can be available for next months.
