It is simple of the principle of tidal power plant. By using of ebb and tidal, it get potential energy. After that, the Potential energy shifts the kinetic energy. Fanally, the kinetic energy shifts electrical energy.This principle is simple but, the problem is that efficiency is low. So, I think tidal power plant is built has disadvantage than advantage.
Current, in france, tidal power plant have run since 1966. It named Rance and only one tidal power plant in the world. It means any country don't try to develop tidal power plant from 40years. Other disadvantage, people who live in area of near Sea think the mud flat is value place to make money. Still, If they go to mud flat, they will get a lot of money about 100,000 per a day. So, this place is kept for fisheman making money.
Therefore, I think government should research a way of more efficiency energy. Other sides, Environment is destoyed, we should spend much time on recovering.
In conclusion, a need for balance between developing and ecosystem is important. I think hydroelectric power plant is suitable. Hydroelectric power plant's advantage is that cost of operation is not expensive, So there is nothing difficult on operating it. In addition, there is no carbon emissions. It is renewable energy.
I ever been to soyang-river dam for field trip in univesity. There is a very clean look and like tourist attraction spot. Other advatage is important place that if Korea rains a lot or do not rains for a long time, dam adjust the amount of water.
