Reflections on the implementation of tidal energy in Ecuador

Renewable energy is a topic frequently discussed due to the need to change the forms of generation, from the centralized to the distributed form and take advantage of the potentials that are scattered in the territory and use local resources and thereby diversify the schemes of distributed generation that allows the man in his daily work to pass from consumption of energy to generator, in this way the environmental impacts are reduced that today accelerate the change of temperature in the planet, noticing in recent years the oil and its derivatives are responsible for this phenomenon. The objective of the research is to reflect on tidal energy, knowing that the province of Manabí, is the one that has the largest coastal area and where there is a potential that can be studied for future use.
