1 year, 3 months agoCost effective tidal energy
HydroWing Ltd is an exciting new business developing new technology for the exploitation of tidal energy on a commercial scale with a focus on efficiency and cost reduction.
The company is undertaking a Concept and Feasibility Study on a novel invention for harnessing tidal energy. The Concept and Feasibility Study includes a techno-economic analysis of the innovation in the context of a commercial array to assess and challenge the effectiveness of the design process. The study is supported and funded by the European Regional Development Fund as part of the Cornwall Marine-I Marine Challenge Fund.
The project has distinct work packages looking at all aspects of a commercial scale tidal array. The focus of the project is on a 30MW array but optimisation towards 100MW and 200MW commercial arrays will also be considered with a view to techno-economic scaling. While a basic concept has been developed it is important that other strategies are considered to determine if this is the most viable integration solution- this is analysed against a baseline case.
