Tidal flat solar power generation

Can tidal flats be used for solar power in Taiwan?

Taiwan has a limited amount of suitable land available for solar power generation. Therefore, tidal flats, lakes, and dams throughout Taiwan are important potential development sites for solar power generation, and Chenya Energy has already pioneered floating solar power plants in several such locations.

What is tidal power generation?

Traditional tidal power generation makes full use of the natural conditions of harbors and estuaries to construct tidal barrage; as a result, it exerts an influence on the hydrodynamic force, ecological environment and navigation inside and outside the dams.
