Tidal energy as a future prospect | Author Name : | | AMBREEN INSAF, M. AHSAN UDDIN, MIRZA SALMAN BAIG, MUSHTAQ AHMED | Publisher : | | Bridge Center | Article URL : | | | Abstract : | | The economic interest for a developing country is to know when
their national income becomes equivalent to national income of
developed country and how. The geographical location, natural
resource and energy resources may help them in this regard. The
largely used form of energy is the electrical energy upon which majority
of the firms and society bases on this energy.
Conventional sources of electricity such as oil and gas are
limited, expensive and unsustainable, not to mention hazardous for the
environment. So, there is no question that renewable energy is the
future. Pakistan is blessed with a geographical location where all types
of renewable energy are available in abundance. Renewable energy in
Pakistan has enough potential to meet the electricity demands of the
country. Further, this potential will help to solve power shortage,
pollution and high electricity production costs. In fact, if Pakistan can
fully harness its renewable potential, it can become an electricity
exporter.
Pakistan has initiated harnessing electricity from wind energy,
solar energy, hydel energy and bio energy. An overview of each of them
has been given. It has not yet exploited the potential of tidal energy. In
fact, almost nothing has been done so far in the field of tidal energy. In
this study, we present recent scenario of renewable energy in Pakistan and some recent studies on tidal energy potential in Pakistan.
Moreover, the details present in this paper provide sufficient evidence
for tidal energy as a prospective candidate of renewable energy in
Pakistan. | Keywords : | | Tidal Energy, Renewable Energy, Wind Energy, Solar
