Almeida, M.M. e Guedes Soares, C. (2015), “Numerical investigation of the tidal energy potential in the Portuguese continental shelf”, Renewable Energies Offshore, Guedes Soares, C. (Ed.), Taylor & Francis Group, London, UK, pp. 177-182

A ROMS based numerical configuration has been created for the Western Iberian region in order to estimate the tidal energy potential. The implementation has been done in two steps: first, intermediate resolution simulations were done, from 1979 to 2010; second, a high resolution shelf and slope domain was nested offline to simulate shelf regions of interest. Lateral and surface forcing of the ocean model were interpolated from solutions of the coupled system NCEP-CFSR. The paper describes the implementations and results for the region São Pedro de Moel. The inter- and intra-annual variability of the tidal energy potential was studied, focused on the specificities of the tidal amplitudes and phase differences among the important harmonics, and also based on the importance of the sub-tidal shelf currents.
