Clean, Green Tidal Power is coming to the Bay of Fundy.
We debated it in Geography 3454 - it is a definitely maybe.
According to the NS government website. There is enough flow in the bay that, using just a couple of locations, enough power could be generated to supply 100 thousand homes.
Personally, I would like to keep it local and small scale as opposed to the MEGAPROJECT. They key is to take it slow but make it go.
I figure that, as long as we can keep in moon in a stable orbit and keep the tectonic plates from unduly squishing together, this one is a long-term winner.
