प्रश्न
Mention any four features of 'Tidal and Wave energy' in India.
उत्तर
- India has a long coastline (7516 km.) in Southern India, which allows for the country's vast potential in tidal and wave energy.
- On the western coast of Gujarat, the Gulf of Khambhat and the Gulf of Kachchh provide ideal conditions.
- The Gangetic delta in the Sundarbans region also has enormous potential for tidal energy utilisation.
- However, little has been done to develop tidal and wave energy because other non-conventional sources provide energy at much lower installation costs.
