Revision as of 21:01, 22 December 2023
Many tidal stream generators (also called tidal stream turbines, tidal energy converters) have been developed of the years to harness the power of tidal currents flowing around coastlines. Note that these operate on a different principal to tidal barrages or lagoons, that generate power by impounding the rising and falling tide.
Lots of different technology variants have been tested, and unlike wind turbines there has not been convergence on a predominant typology. Most have been horizontal-axis, like wind turbines, but with 2, 3, or more blades and either mounted on a seabed fixed foundation or on a floating platform. In addition, vertical-axis turbines and tidal kites are also being developed. Some
Historically, development has largely been focused around Europe, but devices have been built and tested in North America, and Japan (and others). The European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney was granted a license in 2016 to test up to 10 MW of tidal stream device in the Fall of Warness, to the west of the island of Eday, and has since hosted the testing of many of these devices.
There have been various acquisitions of technology developers over the years. Many of the companies are no longer trading, or have ceased development of tidal-stream turbines. However, the first pre-commercial array demonstration projects have been operating since around 2016. Building on this, commercial arrays are expected to be operational by around 2027, at EMEC, Morlais and elsewhere.
Development timeline
Key historical milestones in the development of tidal-stream turbines are summarised below:
- The 300 kW Marine Current Turbines (MCT) SeaFlow turbine was installed in summer 2003 and tested off the coast of Lynmouth, Devon, England.[1]
- In 2004, the world’s first tidal-stream turbine was connected to an electricity grid, the 300 kW Hammerfest Strøm HS300, located in the waters of Kvalsundet, Finnmark, Norway.[2]
- The significantly more powerful, 1.2 MW MCT SeaGen turbine was installed in Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland, in May 2008 and grid connected in July.[3]
- In May 2008, OpenHydro was the first tidal turbine connected to the National Grid in Great Britain (GB). The 250 kW device was tested in the Fall of Warness, Eday, Orkney.[4]
- In August 2016, Nova Innovation installed a second 100 kW turbine in the Bluemull Sound, Shetland, creating the worlds first tidal array.[5]
- A dedicated site for testing tidal stream turbines was pre-consented at the European Marine Energy Centre in 2016, to simplify the process for developers.
- Phase 1 of the MeyGen project was commissioned in 2017, with four turbines totaling 6 MW installed.[6]
Key companies and turbines
Many companies have focused on the development of technology to harness tidal stream energy. A non-exhaustive list of key companies is given below.
Andritz Hydro Hammerfest
Hammerfest Strøm AS was a Norwegian developer of tidal stream turbines, based in Hammerfest. In 2010, Austrian hydropower company Andritz AG bought one third of the shares.[7] In 2012, Andritz became the majority stakeholder and rebranded the company Andritz Hydro Hammerfest.[8]
In November 2003, Hammerfest Strøm installed their HS300 turbine in Kvalsundet, Norway.[9] This 300 kW prototype was a 20 m diameter three-bladed horizontal-axis turbine. It sat on a monopile foundation in 50 m deep water. In 2003, the project was reported to have cost US$11m.[10] The HS300 turbine was connected to the grid in 2014, and operated for over 16,000 hours before it was decommissioned in 2011 and removed in 2012.[2][11]
A more powerful 1MW device was then tested at EMEC from 2012. The HS1000 was also a 20 m diameter three-bladed horizontal-axis turbine, installed at the Fall of Warness test site in December 2011.[12][13]
Three Andritz Hydro Hammerfest AH1000 MK1 turbines were installed as part of phase 1 of the MeyGen project in 2016. These turbines are still three-bladed, but with an 18 m diameter rotor and each rated at 1.5 MW.[14]
Magallanes Renovables
Magallanes Renovables, S.L. is a Spanish developer of floating tidal energy devices, set up in 2009.[15] The company's head office is in Redondela, with a UK subsidiary Magallanes Tidal Energy Ltd. based in Kirkwall.
Their second-generation 1.5 MW[note 1] ATIR device has two three-bladed counter-rotating 19 m diameter rotors at either end of a common driveshaft, mounted below the 45 m long hull.[16][17] It was constructed in Spain in the Ria de Vigo and launched in 2017 followed by a period of tow testing. The device was then towed to Orkney where it was deployed at the Fall of Warness and grid-connected in 2019. In 2020, it was towed to Edinburgh for maintenance, before returning to site in April 2021.[18][19] The company previously tested a smaller scale version of the ATIR device at the EMEC nursery test site in Shapinsay Sound, although this was not grid-connected.[19]
In 2022, Magallanes Tidal Energy was awarded a contract for difference (CfD) to supply subsidised electricity to the GB National Grid, from a 1.5 MW device at Morlais expected to be operational by 2025/26.[20] The following year, they were awarded a further 3 MW at Morlais, and 1.5 MW at EMEC.[21]
Marine Current Turbines
Marine Current Turbines (MCT) was a Bristol-based company that developed seabed mounted tidal-stream turbines. In June 2003, MCT installed the 300 kW Seaflow turbine in Lynmouth, Devon.[22] The larger 1.2 MW SeaGen turbine was installed in Strangford Lough in May 2008, and connected tot the Irish electricity grid in July. It was decommissioned in stages between May 2016 and July 2019, having exported 11.6 GWh of electricity.[23]
Nova Innovation
Nova Innovation Ltd is an Edinburgh-based developer of small bed-mounted tidal-stream turbines. They deployed their first 30 kW turbine in the Bluemull Sound, Shetland,[24] and have operated an array of up-to 6 of their 100 kW turbines in the Bluemull Sound since 2016.[25][26]
Orbital Marine Power
Orbital Marine Power Ltd is an Orkney-based developer of floating tidal stream turbines that have twin rotors either side of a long tubular hull. Their third-generation turbine, the 2 MW Orbital O2 has been deployed at the Fall of Warness since 2021.[27] The company was founded in 2002 as Scotrenewables Tidal Power Ltd, but rebranded in 2019.[28]
Sabella
Sabella SA is a French SME based in Quimper,Brittany that has been developing tidal turbines since 2008, however the company was placed into receivership in October 2023. [29][30] The company had developed two main variants of their technology.
The D03 was a 30 kW horizontal-axis turbine, with a six-bladed rotor 3 m in diameter, hence the name.[31] It was tested in the Odet estuary in 2008, but not grid connected. The turbine weighed 7 tonnes, and sat on a gravity base in around 25 m deep water.
The larger 1 MW D10 turbine was then developed, and tested in the Fromveur Passage, Brittany from June 2015. After hackers interrupted the communications link with the turbine, it began supplying power to the grid in Ushant on 5 November 2015.[32] The device was periodically removed for maintenance, for example in April 2019 after having been re-deployed in October 2018.[33] It was redeployed for a third test campaign in April 2022,[34] and in September 2023, it was reported the turbine was supplying around 25% of the electricity used on Ushant Island.[35]
The D10 turbine is also a horizontal-axis turbine, with a six-bladed rotor and a direct drive permanent magnet generator. It is mounted on a tubular steel tripod foundation approximately 23 m wide, with the turbine 12.5 m above the seabed.[36]
Sabella announced in January 2022 joint plans with Nova Innovation to each develop 6 MW of a 12 MW berth at Morlais.[37]
SIMEC Atlantis Energy
SIMEC Atlantis Energy Ltd (SAE) is a renewable energy company which is developing the MeyGen tidal array in the Pentland Firth between the Scottish mainland and Orkney. Since 2017, this has operated with 4× 1.5 MW tidal turbines, making it the largest tidal-stream array worldwide. The next phases could see a further 50 MW installed by 2028.[38]
The company was founded as Atlantis Resources, and developed the 1.5 MW AR1500 turbine, a three-bladed horizontal-axis seabed mounded device, three of which are installed at MeyGen. They also built a smaller 500 kW AR500 turbine in Scotland, which was shipped to Japan and installed off Naru Island, part of the Gotō Islands. It reportedly generated 10 MWh in the first 10 days of operation in early 2021.[39]
Sustainable Marine Energy
Sustainable Marine Energy Ltd (SME) was a developer of floating tidal stream turbines, founded in 2012 but went into administration in August 2023.[40] Originally based in London, it moved to East Cowes, Isle of Wight in 2013.[41] The company then moved to Edinburgh in XXX
Their first platform, PLAT-O, was a submerged mid-water-column device, with two 50 kW Schottel SIT turbines, mounted between three buoyant hulls. It was initially tested in The Solent, before being tested at EMEC in 2016.[42]
The floating PLAT-I 4.63 was developed for community-scale deployments in inshore waters. It had four 6.3 m diameter turbines mounted on a floating boat-like structure. It was first tested at the Falls of Lora, western Scotland in November 2017,[43] before being shipped to Canada and tested at Grand Passage, Nova Scotia in 2018.[44]
An upgraded PLAT-I 6.4, with six 4 m diameter rotors, totaling 420 kW, was built by A.F. Theriault & Son Ltd. in Meteghan, Nova Scotia in 2021.[44] It was tested in Grand Passage.
SME developed the Pempa’q project at the Fundy Ocean Research Centre for Energy (FORCE), which was to comprise an array of the PLAT-I turbines, with up to 9 MW installed.[45] The project received C$28.5million in funding from the Government of Canada,[44] however it was cancelled in 2023, citing federal red tape.[46] One of the turbines broke it's moorings and washed ashore in November 2023.[47]
In October 2022, the company split out it's anchoring solutions as Swift Anchors, with the aim to focus on different technologies including Floating offshore wind.[48]
