Zusammenfassung:	The tidal powered electrical generator comprises hinged decked barges 9B, 9C which rise and fall with the tide, these barges having a carrying section for carrying multiple ball weights 4 from a low tide position to a high tide position. At the high tide position, the ball weights 4 are released and are guided down a slope 2 to a ladle wheel 3 which is connected to a generator. The wheel 3 rotates due to the gravitational force of the weights 4. The weights 4 then roll down slope 5 to the low tide collection point where they are collected in the barges in order for the process to repeat. The barges can be contained within a dock (16, Fig. 2) which comprises water valves (14, Fig. 2) controlling the fluid communication with the tidal waters.
