Resumo: | The present paper discusses the errors produced while estimating the tidal power with numerical circulation models. The study relies on the analysis of five model-data comparisons issued from the literature. As usually done in the tidal power assessment studies, statistics are first derived for the current velocities. The novelty of this work resides in the direct computation of power density statistics. The errors in the power density prediction are found to be significantly higher than for the current velocity, as expected since power density is a function of velocity cubed. This stresses the need to consider the uncertainties in the tidal energy estimation for the profitability assessment of potential tidal sites.
