Abstract
If in the future it is decided to progress the British tidal power pro gramme, the next logical step will be to build a demonstration scheme. Criteria for selecting a suitable demonstration scheme site are set o ut and a number of candidates identified, making use of a survey of sm all estuaries carried out by Binnie and Partners in 1986. These candid ates are compared in the light of the information they are likely to p roduce and of the probable investment required.
