France has a tidal power station and there are smaller ones in Canada (Bay of Fundy) and a few other countries.
Wave power (Using the movement of the waves to generate electricity) is only just beginning to be used in small experimental situations. Countries using it include:
In terms of actually obtaining power for daily use, only France uses their station regularly. There is some concern about the environmental impact of these stations including changing the orbital velocity of our planet.

A wave power machine is a generator that is powered by wave power. This is a piece of equipment that converts wave variances in a body of water and converts this into electric power.
Countries that got democracy post 1974 are called third wave countries. e.g. nepal
All countries having nuclear power reactors use uranium as nuclear fuel.
If more hydroelectricity is generated as an energy source, wind turbines and wave power will be used less. If these sources are used less, this could cause job loses and other detrimental effects.
The moon
There are a number of reasons why no country actually uses much wave power at the moment. The technology is still not fully worked out. Experimental stations do generate power, but not in significant amounts.
Yes, wave power is renewable.
wave energy as in tidal energy? because it is being used! in France and planned for the bay of fundy in canada. erosion does present a problem but theyre working on it. No, wave energy is different. Can be used where there are sufficient waves.
There are only a few countries experimenting with wave power, that is, collecting the energy of waves. (This is not the same as tidal power, which is the energy from the tides.)Diffferent kinds of equipment is used. Some machines float on the surface and use the up and down movement of the water. Others are attached to the sea bed and catch the side to side movement.Countries using wave power include:SpainPortugalUnited KingdomAustraliaUnited States
Its wave power
Wave power produces renewable energy, that is, electricity. This is the same electricity that we use every day, so wave power can power our heaters, coolers, electric cars, trains and planes and everything that runs on electricity.
Country that uses the most wind power is Germany, then areas of Denmark also use alot of wind power. Next would be the U.S., and Spain follows right behind them. Other users include:AustraliaBrazilCanadaChinaWalesRepublic of IrelandScotlandEnglandIndiaJapanNew ZealandSouth AfricaThe United States and China are in a race for number one spot on this utterly useless form of power. They have both surpassed Germany as the leader. See the link below
Wave power is not any different from power derived from coal in its final function. Wave power only indicates the way the energy was harnessed, not its functionalty. This being stated, however, wave power would be two to three times more expensive until further research is dedicated to it.
Yes.
wave power is efficient.
You can use eco friendly things. If you mean for generating power, you can use: Wind turbines solar panels hydro electric wave power Tidal power you can also use Nuclear power!
Because it is there.
