[Publication] Optimal site selection and potential power assessment for tidal power generation in the Seto Inland Sea, Japan, based on high-resolution ocean modelling and multicriteria analysis

Highlights
• High-resolution ocean model used with GIS for optimal site selection of tidal power
• The Seto Inland Sea is vital for tidal power with optimal sites equals to 1.18 km2.
• Tidal power quantification is based on the dominant tidal velocity
• 10% of tidal power in Obatake Strait supplies 60% of Yanai City households
• 10% of tidal power in Obatake Strait resulted in 19,800 t-CO2 reduction per year
