Tidal Farms are composed by a series of devices that can harnest the energy of tides. This is usually done with fixed structures that can vary in size and functioning. However the general concept is simple; the turbines produce energy when the water harvested during the high tide is released (during low tide). | Tidal Farms are composed by a series of devices that can harnest the energy of tides.

The placement restrictions decide whether the overlap of spatial elements causes: | |||
Errors - Impossible to place these layers on top of each other due to physical limitations. | |||
Warnings - Warnings that it should be done, but won't stop the placement. | |||
