The Tidal Energy Institute is conducting research, education and outreach to promote responsible approaches to tidal energy development
Research
Situated right on the Bay of Fundy, home to the world's highest tides, Acadia University has been researching the effects of tidal energy for over 100 years!
Education
Acadia professors are teaching courses to help students and community members understand the power of the Bay of Fundy tides and how marine renewable energy is emerging worldwide.
Outreach
We are working to ensure that information about local tide energy and tidal energy research is readily available, to create a better understanding of the costs, benefits, opportunities and risks of tidal energy.
