State whether the following is true or false.
Tidal stream energy extraction can itself reduce the tidal range in the basin behind.

  • A.True only at large scales
  • B.False only at small scales
  • C.True
  • D.False

Answer: C

Extracting energy adds resistance to the flow passing through the channel. Large scale deployment therefore has a natural limit set by the resource itself rather than by the technology. Extraction changes the resource being exploited.
