As there are two high tides a day, this lagoon scheme would generate electricity four times a day, every day, for a total of around 14 hours in every 24—and enough electricity for over 150,000 homes.
In Miami, we're already seeing storm drains that erupt with water after heavy rainfalls, and cars and properties that are damaged due to flooding from high tide.
This increase in sea level has led to more high tides, which has led the city to raise the gates far more often than originally planned, 66 times so far.
As the tide comes in, they move with it to feed on small fish or squid which travel with the currents, using echolocation to see their prey through the murky water.
