Answer to Question 1

In recent years, scientists have been experimenting with new and more efficient windmills. The new structures appear
to be more like tall wind towers equipped with propeller blades. New technology has improved propeller blades



Answer to Question 2

The potential of tidal power is estimated at 2.9 million megawatts of power daily. The principal drawback of tidal
power is the massive dams and levees that must be constructed initially.
