Abstract :
In this study we tried to highlight events and difficulties to construct tidal power plant and their simple solutions. The design for gharo tidal power plant is described. Gharo tidal power plant can be first experiment in tidal industry. This experiment gives understanding of required techniques to construct larger tidal power plant the bulb turbine can be used in real site and its all parameters like generator and propeller design. In this study we want to give some observed and calculated data of gharo creek. In this study we assumed the efficiency of our plant is 30%. Gharo tidal power plant if installed can fulfil the requirement of more than 30 lack houses. This will be great achievement for Pakistan. As our country facing huge energy crises. We have to move toward renewable and green energy.
