Introducing Hydropower International

Tidal power has the potential to be the world's largest producer of predictable renewable electricity. There is a long history of using the force of water to produce mechanical energy and indeed prior to the advent of the steam engine, water wheels were the primary method of driving machinery such as flour mills, sawmills, hammer mills and many others. The Romans had used watermills very effectively with one of the earliest at Chemtou, Tunisia.
