Introduction★ Stan★ Jaime★ Iris★ Laura

How does it work, and what it it?

● Looks like windmills● Underwater● turbines● 2 m2 → 100 m2● Very expensive● biggest tubine 3,15 billion● generated lots of energy● bigger turbines more energy

Where can you find these plants and why?

● Spain: Motrico (Guipúzcoa)● Santoña: (Cantabria)● Holland: none because: ● Water

Can it be used in the Netherlands or Spain and why?

● lot of water● 832 times denser● 8 knot tidal current → more energy than

380 kph wind● predictable● deep water● 2 squared meters - 100 squared meters

What is the effect on the environment?

* hasn't got a large environmental impact.

● Fish migration● kill fish population ● pollution(noise)

Conclusion

● Good → green energy● Very expensive → to make ● Cheap → in water● Lots of energy● Bad for underwater animals● Spain
