Global warming has long been an important issue. Melting glaciers are one of its hazards, along with rising sea levels. Besides, tidal energy as an increasingly significant renewable energy has grasped people’s attention more than before. However, global warming has a remarkable effect on the power production from the tide. There are also some other effects which the rising sea level will have on the nearby coastal areas. It may interfere the tidal amplitude, tidal line, tidal cycle and the tidal surge, and each element will affect the efficiency of the tidal power plant. In this paper, the effects of rising sea level on tidal power are analyzed and some adaptation strategies to help the local communities are proposed.
