The utility-scale tidal powerplant Dragon 12 - rated at 1.2 MW - has been successfully commissioned and, in the early morning of February 9, delivered its first electricity to the national grid in the Faroe Islands.
An innovative project involving one of Scotland’s tidal energy pioneers has created an intelligent control system within a tidal energy turbine that could potentially slash costs by over 17.7 per cent.
Marine Energy Research Australia (MERA) is set to deliver an extensive study focused on wave energy hydrodynamics, to drive performance, reduce cost and accelerate commercialisation.
Irish wave energy developer, OceanEnergy, has signed up to demonstrate its OE35 floating wave energy converter at the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney, Scotland.
For now, ocean energy has been largely untapped in the Philippines despite the apparent potential of the power source because of the scarcity of available technologies.
