Show UTILIZING POWER OF TIDES difficulties in way of project will all be overcome the difficulties of concentrating tid al at power and making it mallabia aall mall abiL aro ate great and so far it has been used only on an a IL email scale and tn in a primitive way but the near future e will probably see great electric benc hene plant plants established at favorable where here the tides run high and there are natural storage basins some month months ago a plan a as worked out tor for utilla ing the ebb and flow of the iziver I 1 seine assuming that tidal embank ments ware were needed tor for guiding the channel through tho estuary it as proposed that these be connected to tho the shore on either side ride so as to form two to large reservoirs each of ot which should be divided into a high water basin an and d a low wa water ter basin the discharge f from from one to the other to drive turbines turbin cs the available tide Is about 10 feet fach reservoir would have an area of about 2 asoo acres and it was estimated that about 6 horsepower would be given off during the six hours of the rising tide the L cost olt of division dams turbines and other works was placed ed at 60 from this the annual co cost at of each horsepower was wits computed at 8 00 ln in eluding land rent and interest at 10 per cent but this would rise to nor mor than the channel walls wall ww war to form part of the expense |
