The Maine Tidal Power Initiative is studying how tidal energy projects could impact the environment and local communities. They are assessing tidal energy resources, testing device designs, monitoring the environment, and studying community responses. The researchers measured the effects of a turbine generator unit developed by Ocean Renewable Power Company and are looking into smaller community projects for the future.
