Now This Is A Winning Combination,

a tidal turbine linked to a hydrogen electrolyzer,

this is the first tidal turbine in the world to produce the pure element through tidal velocities, and further aid in broad decarbonization efforts, of course tidal and hydro power can not be used in every community, but where it can what a winner! the world’s most powerful tidal turbine was launched off the Orkney coast, where it will spend the next 15 years generating enough clean energy to power about 2,000 households in the U.K. “O2” is the novel development of the Scottish engineering company Orbital Marine Power, which manufactured the 74-meter-long design during the last decade and a half, anchored in the turbulent waters in the Fall of Warness off the north-eastern point of Scotland, the 2MW machine is connected to the onshore electricity network of the European Marine Energy Centre. The testing facility uses the powerful currents flowing through the channel from the North Atlantic Ocean to the North Sea—these streams reach 7.8 knots at spring tides—to produce a reliable electricity source for local communities. During its stay, “O2” will also support the centre's hydrogen electrolyzer, which is the first in the world to produce the pure element through tidal velocities, and further aid in broad decarbonization efforts, Orbital Marine Power has plans to commercialize the innovative technology behind “O2,” which you can explore in detail on the company’s YouTube, if only more companies would look at the energy that could be harvested by using the tides and then using it to produce hydrogen.
