No, they are not the same. Wave power refers to electricity or high pressure pumped water which is derived from the transformation of the kinetic and potential energy of ocean waves.

Tidal energy refers to electricity which is derived from the transformation of the kinetic energy of tidal flows through narrow channels or from the potential energy of seawater impounded from tidal flows.

No, wave power and tidal power are not the same. Wave power generates electricity from the movement of ocean waves, while tidal power generates electricity from the rise and fall of tides caused by gravitational forces from the moon and the sun. Both are forms of renewable energy from the ocean, but they harness different sources of energy.

What uses wave power?

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
