Abstract

In the context of global energy crisis and climate change, tidal current energy is one kind of marine renewable energy rich in total resources with little effect on environment and higher TRL and have promising prospects of utilization in the offshore region of China. Although significant progresses have been made in the past decades, the work on the resource assessment affecting its utilization, the impacts of utilization on the environment and so forth still needs further investigation and improvement. This paper is to review the assessment work and main research results of large-scale tidal current energy in coastal region in the Chinese history, summarizing and analyzing the main technical features of assessment methods for tidal current energy. On this basis, the relevant suggestions on surveys and evaluation researches were put forward combining the development situation of utilization of tidal current energy, which can provide scientific references for the utilization tidal current energy in China.
