This document provides an overview of grid interfaced tidal power plants. It discusses the history of tidal power usage dating back to tidal mills in medieval times. The advantages of tidal power include being clean, non-polluting, and producing a constant, predictable supply of electricity. Disadvantages include tidal power only being economically feasible in locations with a tidal range of over 5 meters and potential environmental impacts. The document describes how tides are formed by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun. It explains the process of harnessing tidal power using tidal barrages, which involve constructing a dam across an estuary with sluice gates and turbines.
Tidal energy harnesses the potential energy of tides to generate electricity. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on the earth's oceans. A tidal power plant consists of a dam or barrage to impound tidal waters, sluice gates to control water flow, and a powerhouse containing turbines linked to generators. Tidal power is a renewable source of energy that produces predictable power without pollution, but has high construction costs and requires suitable coastal locations with adequate tidal ranges.
This document discusses tidal power, including what causes tides, how tidal power works, the components of a tidal power plant, and methods of operation. Tidal power harnesses the kinetic energy of tidal currents or potential energy of rising and falling tides. There are two main methods - barrages across estuaries that generate power as tides flow in and out, and tidal stream turbines that operate similar to wind turbines in moving water. Tidal power plants have dams, turbines, and generators and can utilize single or double basin systems in different tidal cycles. While tidal power is a renewable source with few emissions, barriers are very expensive and can impact local ecosystems.
Tidal energy harnesses the movement of tides to generate electricity. Early tidal power plants used barrages to contain water after high tide, releasing it through turbines to power generators. Newer tidal stream technologies place turbines directly in tidal currents, allowing energy production on both ebbing and surging tides. While tidal energy has the advantages of predictability and zero emissions, development has been limited by high costs and potential environmental impacts.
Tidal energy harnesses the predictable rise and fall of ocean tides caused by gravitational forces from the moon and sun. It can be generated using two methods: tidal range uses barrages and lagoons to capture potential energy from changing tide levels, while tidal stream extracts kinetic energy from tidal currents using structures like tidal turbines. Tidal energy is a renewable source and more predictable than wind and solar, but development has been limited by high costs and few locations with sufficiently high tidal ranges or currents. New technologies aim to overcome challenges and make tidal power more economically and environmentally viable.
Hydroelectric power plants capture the energy of flowing water to generate electricity. The most common type uses a dam to store water in a reservoir, then water released through turbines spins a generator. Dams are expensive to build and can cause environmental issues like flooding habitat, but hydro provides renewable energy without pollution. Hydroelectric power works best where there is abundant water, steep valleys to build dams, and nearby demand for electricity.
Tidal energy harnesses the kinetic energy of tidal currents and the potential energy of tidal height differences to generate electricity. It is a renewable and predictable source of energy.

While tidal energy has advantages like being sustainable and producing no emissions, it also has disadvantages such as high initial costs, potential environmental impacts, and limited locations suitable for generation. Overall, tidal energy is a green energy source but still needs technological advancements to become more cost-effective and widely implemented.

Hydropower harnesses the kinetic energy of flowing water to generate electricity. The amount of electricity generated depends on the water flow rate and head (drop height). Greater flow and head produce more power. Humans first used waterwheels to harness water's kinetic energy for tasks like grinding grains. Modern hydropower plants use turbines connected to generators to convert the kinetic energy of falling water into electric power transmitted via power lines. The world's theoretical and technical hydropower potential is large, but only a fraction has been developed so far, with opportunities existing worldwide.

The document is technical in nature and provides details about designing and constructing hydroelectric power infrastructure.
Hydropower is a renewable energy source that generates electricity from water power. It works by channeling flowing water through turbines to produce kinetic energy. There are four main types of hydropower systems: run-of-river, which uses a canal to divert river water to turbines; storage systems, which use dams to store water in reservoirs and release it to drive turbines; pumped storage, which pumps water between reservoirs to produce energy during peak demand; and offshore systems that harness tidal currents or waves. Hydropower provides clean, flexible energy but can impact habitats and organisms and production depends on water availability.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. Hydropower energy is ultimately derived
from the sun, which drives the water cycle. In
the water cycle, rivers are recharged in a
continuous cycle. Because of the force of
gravity, water flows from high points to low
points. There is kinetic energy embodied in
the flow of water.
3. Flowing water is directed
at a turbine (remember
turbines are just advanced
waterwheels). The flowing
water causes the turbine to
rotate, converting the
water’s kinetic energy into
mechanical energy.
6. It consists of the following :
1. Nozzle : Nozzle is required for high velocity
of water.
2. Turbine : Generally, Kaplan and Francis
turbines are used .
3. Rectifier : Converts AC to DC.
4. Transformer : Used to vary voltage supplied.
7. It works on the principle that when the high velocity of
water is applied with a force on the blades of turbine it will
rotate along with the main shaft. An alternator is mounted on
the main shaft which used to converts rotary motion to
electrical energy.
A rectifier is connected to it which helps to convert AC
supply to DC supply.
Thus , electricity is generated with the help of water
turbine.
8. 1. Once a dam is constructed, electricity can be produced
at a constant rate.
2. If electricity is not needed, the sluice gates can be
shut, stopping electricity generation. The water can be
saved for use another time when electricity demand is
high.
3. The lake's water can be used for irrigation purposes.
4. When in use, electricity produced by dam systems do
not produce green house gases. They do not pollute the
atmosphere.
9. 1. Dams are extremely expensive to build and must be built to a very
high standard.
2. The high cost of dam construction means that they must operate
for many decades to become profitable.
3. The flooding of large areas of land means that the natural
environment is destroyed.
4. The building of large dams can cause serious geological damage.
For example, the building of the Hoover Dam in the USA triggered a
number of earth quakes and has depressed the earth’s surface at its
location.
