France (for tidal power development)

France is exploring tidal power by harnessing the energy from ocean tides along its coastlines, particularly in regions with strong, consistent tidal flows like the Bay of Fundy or the coastline of northern France. Tidal power involves installing turbines or barriers that capture the movement of rising and falling tides, converting this kinetic energy into electricity. It’s a reliable and predictable renewable energy source because tides follow natural lunar cycles. France aims to supplement its energy mix with such projects to reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainable development, leveraging its geographic advantage of extensive and influenceable coastal areas.
