摘要
In some few special areas of the world, the range of the variation of the sea levels due to the tide can be impressive. For centuries man has been harnessing this energy with the operation of tidal mills. At present, the design of tidal power does not arise new scientific Nevertheless, additional research and development should be carried out in three fields: interface of the tidal power station output with National Grids and above all a sound assesment of its economic interest, design and implementation of the works according to the site, environmental effects. On November 26, 1966, ''La Rance'' tidal power station was inaugurated after 25 years of design in various fields, and 25 years afterwards it is still the only industrial prototype of a great size tidal power station and it brings us a lot of interesting data. Currently several important schemes are under study throughout the world.
