Scotland to House Largest Tidal Turbine

Atlantis Energy director of turbine and engineering services Drew Blaxland told New Civil Engineer: “The AR2000 is expected to be the world’s largest single-axis tidal turbine and it will be deployed on the world’s largest tidal power project. “As the sole supplier of turbine generation equipment to the second phase of the MeyGen Project in Scotland, partnering with General Electric unlocks enormous opportunities to build on 10 years of research and development to now deliver more cost-effective, cleaner tidal power solutions for developers around the world. There have also been concerns that Brexit could have a significant impact on tidal energy investment in Scotland with Nova Innovation winning European Commission grant-funding for its Shetland off-grid project.
