ABSTRACT:
A continuous water flow from selected ones of a plurality of reservoirs passes through turbines or the like within an hydroelectric power station to produce electrical power. The reservoirs are cyclically filled and evacuated through the power station by operation of a plurality of gates interconnecting reservoirs having different water height levels and an adjacent source of tidal waters. By programmed operation of the gates a continuous water pressure head can be maintained at the power station to assure continuous electrical power generation.
