The crucial number in determining how fast that happens is the «quality factor», Q, which tells us the fraction of the tidal energy that is dissipated in each cycle.
Other fossil - fuel replacements occasionally touted in print or on the Web include nuclear fission, subcritical thorium fission, high - altitude wind power, enhanced geothermal, hot dry (or hot fractured) rock geothermal, wave power, tidal power, open - cycle ocean thermal energy conversion, and advanced biorefinery products like 2,5 - dimethylfuran, various other furans and furfurals.
It's a one - way process, whereas the rest of nature works on material cycles and natural (read solar, tidal, and geothermal) energy flows.
The flow machines will be used to «firm» the tidal generation at the site, storing excess energy during the two tidal cycles each day.
The only systems that can «move», transporting energy around in cycles are ones without mechanisms for energy sharing or dissipation, like planets going around the sun in the limit that you ignore tidal heating and gravity waves and light pressure.

Scientists were aware tidal energy varied in the distant past, but the new study suggests there is a super-tidal cycle occurring over geologic timescales and linked to tectonic movement.
The new research suggests long - term changes in tidal energy, which control the strength of the ocean's waves, are part of a super-tidal cycle dictated by the movement of tectonic plates.
