Tidal energy converter. Artwork of an offshore tidal turbine. Tidal forces rotate the propellor blades (centre right), which then drive a generator in order to produce electricity. Tidal turbines are more reliable than wind turbines, as the rise and fall of the tide is controlled by the constant and predictable motion of the Moon.
