The best option I've seen for renewable energy thats currently being trialed in Europe is tidal turbines why we haven't atleast looked at testing this since we are a island nation has suprised me.

@CraigKendrickNZ ask anyone who owns a boat & they'll tell you - huge maintenance because of the aggressive environment they're in.
@CraigKendrickNZ
I've wondered that when I see tidal water rushing in or out of a pipe under a causeway.
Twice a day. No. Four times.( In then out X 2)
Never stops except at its peak high or low tidal moment.
Got to be a way.
@CraigKendrickNZ one word: French Pass! 🙀🙀
Oh, that was two, sorry
@CraigKendrickNZ there has been discussion on tidal turbines and wave power here for a couple of decades. The tech for tidal is close but it needs the right grid framework. Both points are true.. its a tough environment but we have a lot of it.
