The Facts about Alternative Energy - Tidal Energy

TIDAL ENERGY
Even the power of the tides can be harnessed to produce electricity. It is not just wind power which works to generate electricity.
Similar to the more conventional hydroelectric dams, the tidal process utilizes the natural motion of the tides to fill reservoirs, which are then slowly discharged through electricity-producing turbines. The former USSR produced 300 MW in its Lumkara plant using this method.

Advantages
• Tides rise and fall every day in a very consistent pattern.
• Economic life of a tidal power plant. A plant is expected to be in production for 75 to 100 years
• Tidal energy does not require any fuel.
• It reduces the dependence upon fossil fuels
• Tidal and wave energy is free, renewable, and clean source of energy
• It produces clean electricity, with no production of greenhouse gas or pollution.
• Tidal and wave energy generation and consumption creates no liquid or solid pollution
• Highly efficient resource (compared with coal and oil at 30%, tidal power efficiency is about 80%)
• Energy capturing and conversion mechanism may help protect the shoreline
• Energy capturing and conversion mechanism has little visual impact
• About 60 billion watts of energy from tides can be used for electricity generation
• Tides are active 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
• Tidal power is a renewable source of energy.
• It produces energy for free, once the initial costs are recovered.

Disadvantages
• The altering of the ecosystem
• Damages through reduced flushing, winter icing and erosion can change the vegetation of the area and disrupt the balance.
• Only available in a small number of regions.
• Requires a basin or a gulf that has a mean tidal amplitude (the differences between spring and neap tide) of at least 7 meters or above.
• It leads to the the displacement of wild life habitats.
• It can only be used where there is suitable tidal flow or wave motion. So it can not be used inland.
• It only produces electricity during tidal surges.
• Barrage systems require salt resistant parts and lots of maintenance.
• The frames of the turbines can disrupt the movement of large marine animals and ships through the channels on which the barrage is built.
• The barrage systems have the disadvantages of disrupting fish migration and killing fish passing through the turbines, therefore, there is also the risk of destruction of ecosystem that rely on the coming and going of tides.
• The ecosystem is disrupted during the construction of building the tidal fence. This affects the fishes and also the fishermen who depends their life on it.
• Tidal energy can only be created on a coast with a good tidal differential. Worthless for a landlocked country, has to be converted to something else to be transported
• It is limited because the tide never speeds up or slows down, and occurs on 6 hour cycles.
• The cost for constructing and running the facility
• Construction of strong, cheap and efficient conversion devices may be problematic

How To Optimize Your Blog For Search Engines

Many clients ask me how to drive more traffic to their blogs. By now you have probably heard that blogs are an excellent resource to get leads as well as clients for your business. The best way to do that is by creating search engine friendly blog posts that get indexed in search engines. When people search for information on topics you discuss in your blog it appears on the search engine result pages. Potential customers then are able to read what you have to say and get on your mailing list.

So now it all boils down to techniques that help you effectively optimize your blog for search engines. Here are tips and ideas to do just that:

- Create A Keyword Rich Header For Your Blog. The header repeats on all pages on the blog. By making sure that your header contains targeted keywords, you are able to get more of your blog pages indexed in search engines.

- Treat Each Blog Post As A Separate, Optimizable Page. Use the process of search engine optimization on each blog post. This means that you need to create an optimized title for each post, find targeted keywords for each post and weave the keywords into your post’s text.

- Make Sure That Each Blog Post’s File Name Are Descriptive. Different blogging software behaves differently, but some will call your blog posts 2.html, 3.html, 4.html, etc. As you can see, that is not very descriptive and not particularly helpful to either people or search engines. When you create a post called “How Coaching Helps Business Owners”, calling it “how-coaching-helps-business-owners.html” is a much better title than “5.html”

Make sure that your blogging software creates descriptive file names for your blog posts; it is better both for human readers and search engine spiders.

- Get Links Pointing To Your Blog. Quality links to your blog means more blog visitors and higher search engine rankings. Current search engine algorithms value links to your blog, which means that having links pointing to your blog will improve your blog’s search engine rankings.

- Get Your Blog Listed in Blog Directories. Blog directories are a great source of getting unidirectional links to your blog. Since blog directory links many times are unidirectional (they link to you, but you don’t link back to them), they are great for boosting your search engine rankings. Having many unidirectional links pointing to your web site will improve your search engine rankings.

A blog is an excellent marketing tool, but your blog will not attract more leads and clients for your business if you don’t use search engine optimization techniques to optimize your blog and attract targeted search engine traffic to it.
