Feasibility study on harnessing tidal energy leveraging on tides and underground cavern space

The purpose of this report is to study the feasibility of harnessing tidal energy leveraging on tides and underground cavern space. Another separate report was done in conjunction with this report titled “Feasibility Study on Tidal Energy harnessing using Underground Cavern”. Both the separate repor...
