TIL: there is a 6MW "tidal stream energy" plant off the coast of Scotland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MeyGen) which apparently actually supplies energy to the normal grid; and there are also plans to extend the plant.
To me as a total layperson this sounds like a great way to complement other renewable energy sources, since tidal water flow should more reliable than wind and sun.

Environmentalists celebrate ending stored hydropower behind dams, now operating generators continuously as run of the river, so impounded water levels do not go up and down. This end of stored hydropower removes the ability to fill in power lapses from intermittent solar power and wind power generators. This burns more fossil fuel in natural gas fired turbine generators, which can fill in. Clean nuclear power can replace all these, but we need to get the price down. https://lnkd.in/eu8zdSmv
To feel so small and so insignificant
Pumped storage hydropower is America's secret decarbonization weapon
