Layer: Tidal Energy Resource potential in Canada: Mean Potential Power (MW) (ID: 3)

Name: Tidal Energy Resource potential in Canada: Mean Potential Power (MW)

Display Field: Site_Name

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPoint

Description: This map is an illustration of Canada’s tidal energy resource potential. About 190 tidal power sites have been identified off Canada’s coasts with a total estimated capacity of 42,000MW—more than 63 percent of the country’s annual total electricity consumption. Nunavut has the country’s greatest abundance of tidal resources; British Columbia has the most potential sites. Tidal energy is produced by the rise and fall of tides from the gravitational influence of the sun and moon. Tidal energy can take two forms: tidal current and tidal range. Canada is pursuing tidal current energy generation.
