British sea power 英国建设潮汐能发电站

文字稿:

Six of the world's first tidal lagoon power stations could be built on this bit of British coastline.

Plans have been announced to construct a number of giant man-made lakes which will trap incoming and outgoing tides.

The stations will harness the weight of the water to generate power.

Together they could make eight per cent of the UK's electricity.
