Disadvantages of Tidal Energy. There are a limited number of locations worldwide that have tidal ranges large enough to make tidal power cost-effective. Tidal power systems are currently expensive to develop and they cannot be built in any location. Tidal energy systems that use dams may restrict fish migration.
Letâs rack up the pluses and minuses. Tidal Power Pros and Cons. Pros. 1  Renewable. 2  Requires no fuel. 3  Emission-free. 4  Reliable, a plant can last 100 years. 5  High efficiency. 6  Predictable output. 7  Could potentially provide a storm surge barrier.nnovators have long recognized the potential to capture great quantities of clean, free energy from these tides that can be used to spin turbines and readily produce electricity. Records of ocean power conversion date back to 900A.D. where the power of tidal movement was used to grind grains.
