The Sihwa tidal power plant generates one-way power twice a day at high tide. In the early 21st century, tidal energy generation gained increasing attention as a strategy to counter rising international oil prices and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. At the time, potential developments were not deemed profitable and were postponed.
The feasibility of tidal energy generation in South Korea was first investigated in the 1970s. The 552.7 GWh of electricity generated from Sihwa tidal power plant is equivalent to 862,000 barrels of oil, or 315,000 tons of CO2 – the amount produced by 100,000 cars produce annually." The tidal power plant facility Approval was received in 2002 and construction began in 2004. K-water, the Korean governmental water authority, commissioned the first feasibility study for the construction of a tidal power plant at the site which would improve seawater circulation by about 200 per cent. However, seawater circulation via the sluice gates alone is limited. In response, the government transitioned Sihwa’s operating strategy from a freshwater to a seawater lake by periodically opening up the seawall’s sluice gates to flush the basin by circulating seawater in an effort to improve the water quality. This was due to a combination of factors, including low natural freshwater inflows and the increase of wastewater from the industrial complexes.ĭelays in the construction of local wastewater treatment facilities further exacerbated the situation, and by 1997 the Sihwa Lake was so contaminated that the water could no longer be used. Yet once the seawall was closed and the natural tidal currents were cut off, water quality deteriorated. It was created to provide reclaimed land for the nearby metropolitan area, flood mitigation, and secure irrigation water by converting the costal reservoir to fresh water. You may have encountered the Sawed-Off Shotgun, Light Machine Gun, or Light Assault Rifle (If you have one of either, it'll be Spacer's Choice item #5).Sihwa Lake is a 43.8 km² artificial lake constructed as a land reclamation project by the South Korean government in 1994, using a 12.7 km long seawall at Gyeonggi Bay. If you still have any side missions remaining, now would be the time to do them. Return to Edgewater to talk to Reed and pick up the power regulator you've been looking for.Īssuming that you did Max's quest, return to him at the church and he'll offer to join your quest, telling you that he'll meet you back on the ship. The key here is that they all choose to return to Edgewater without Reed stepping down as the boss. Speak to Grace and/or Thomas if you did their side missions, as this will give them enough assurance to agree to come back to Edgewater under Reed's rule.
She'll tell you that you'll have to convince the others to come back to town, but she won't budge. Return to the Deserters' camp and speak to Adelaide, who's understandably miserable in the power room. Make a hard save and choose to Redirect Power to Edgewater. Once you've reprogrammed the robots and reactivated the tracks, it's time to make the big decision! Head into the main control room and before you make the decision, Parvati will offer her view on things. Chester is a frazzled engineer who, with some persuasion, will tell you that the way to defeating the robots is to reprogram them to attack one another.
